Chris, Check under Industrial Fabrics. I see 0.58 oz, 1.4 oz and 2.1 oz fabrics available. Also, have you checked your local hobby shop or one of the online shops like Tower Hobbies? The model airplane guys use this light weight cloth, so do some of us boat people. Ron On 07/25/2010 08:33 AM, odysseyslipw...@aol.com wrote: In a message dated 7/25/2010 8:25:48 A.M.

i just inquired with the one E-bay dealer to see about just buying 1 yard length as it's 50 wide, more than enough for what i'll end up needing (i think) Chris, _Odyssey Slipways_ (http://hometown.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html) -- You are currently subscribed to the R/C Tank Combat group.
