Anyone have any extra Dyneema X gridstop? on 02/28/2012 13:09:48 MST Print View

I would like to get about a yard of 57" dyneema, or at least some 12x12 scraps and some other small scraps. I went to thru-hiker and the $8.00 shipping was the deal breaker. If anyone has any I would appreciate it and I can pay via paypal. Thanks

I am interested in that as well. Maybe a bulk purchase in order?

I can sell some by the yard ($24) or half-yard ($13) plus $3 for shipping first-class. If interested, contact me at ben@goosefeetgear.com .

Note: My Dyneema X is Titanium Gray

That is great Ben, I was in the same position as the OP.

I'll be taking you up on that offer.

Thanks

I happen to have plenty of dark gray Dyneema X grid. $23.50 per meter (not per yard) and I'll keep the shipping to a minimum.

Hey Dan, is the fabric darker than the usual titanium grey that Thru-Hiker sells? I'm thinking about buying some more black, but it looks like I'll have to get that from thru-hiker. If this is darker, then it would work great.

folks have reported great success dyeing dyneema X (with photo evidence). The nylon accepts the dye, the dyneema stays white.

It's pretty dark and darker than the thru-hiker stuff I've seen - not a lot darker but darker.

Can send swatch of course.

I made it more clear above that my price is per meter, not per yard.

Also, it is 60" to 60.25" wide for the roll but the coated portion is more like 57" to 57.5"

The gray is quite dark - will post a photo link on my fabric page and here;
