    if you can spare a square...

    Hi, everyone.

    Can anyone spare a small scrap of silnylon?

    I'd like to patch a tear in my brother-in-law's rain fly. I am looking for a scrap of silnylon--doesn't matter what color--to patch it up. Should need a 5 x 7 inch piece (but larger would be great, too). I don't have any projects that require silnylon so I'd hate to put in an order for some just for a small piece.

    Any help is greatly appreciated. To keep the karma going, I'll get a PIF item out there sometime soon.

    Sincerely,

    Michael (SoCal Mike)

    I don't need much to make the repair. He thought a 5 x 7 piece would do the trick.

    sargevining is sending me some, but if you could spare a few pieces, that would be great. I have never sewn silnylon. Most of my sewing has been with ripstop nylon, cotton, webbing, etc. So a few scraps for practice would be very helpful b/c I know it is very, very slippery stuff. Should I PM my address to you?

    This is why this site is so great...Not only did some generous souls kick down some scraps, another shares a tip for getting a good deal down the road. Thank you so much. I will definitely look into this. I want to make a new tarp (eventually) and it will be nice to check this place out.

    Sincerely,
