E.w. Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Builders merchant sell it buy the roll expensive, but if you know any builders ask and you'll get plenty for what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitsinhedges Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Go to a local roofing company or building site and get them to sell you a few scraps. It can come in other colours though so you have to see which particular one they are using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenman99 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 These are some i made last year. Works well on the bouncer & rotary. Use different thickness carbon spars depending on the wind strength. PM me your address & i will send you some gray Tyvek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
