I was using that 50 years ago.   back then, you got it by buying a
surplus parachute; then cutting off the shroud lines.   the red canopy
became my "shop"  while I learned how to reassemble an OM621 for my
200D.   I hung the canopy from the old box elder tree.   I still have
some of the red line around somewhere....

A true "shade tree mechanic"!
