Hey Everyone,

As you all know, finding Tyvek in pre-cut sheets that doesn't have the obnoxious Red and Blue TYVEK Logo blazed all over one side is pretty hard to find. So I did some research and found that I can buy a lighter weight 1.25oz sq yard version (Hard Structure Type) in 60" wide rolls that is (.60oz sq yard (34%) lighter) then the House Wrap version and is logo free on both sides.. That said I am thinking of selling pre-cut sheets in 24" x 78", 36" x 84", 60" x 96", and for longer tunnel type tents 60" x 120" and 60" x 160"

The introductory prices and weights are as follows..

$8.00 30" x 84" (2.43oz)
$15.00 60" x 96" (5.55oz)
$20.00 60" x 120" (6.94oz)
$25.00 60" x 160" (9.25oz)

I am placing an order for the bulk rolls in the next few days and want to make sure I buy/make enough sheets, so who is interested? And in what sizes?

Thanks,
Lawson

I would be interested in the $15.00 60" x 96" (5.55oz) and will buy one when you get them in stock :)

I will most likely purchase all three sizes eventually. Either of the smaller ones first. Prices seem reasonable. I would even pay more if you pre-installed grommets to stake them down.

I could go for one in this size: $10.00 36" x 84" (2.91oz)

I could use a few of the 36"X84" sections for back up ground sheets for our hammocks.

I'd definitely purchase two of the smaller size, and one each of the other two.

I would definitely be interested in a couple of the largest ones… and possibly a larger sheet eventually, if that's possible. Thanks!

Lawson, I'd be interested in:
1 of the 36"x84"

but I would like:
2 at 36"x96"

36'x84" for me.

Tyvek may be heavier than the other options, but is also more durable, breathable, stays put better and highly visible.

I found the clear groundcloth materials hard to see in the dark. They bunch up under my bag/quilt from tossing and turning. I'd often end up in the dirt in the middle of the night and not know it.

I still need to finish a few MYOG projects before I could say which sizes more decisively but I'd for sure take a 60×96 and probably a 24×78 but that might change to 36×84 depending on a few things.

anyway, you can count on me for 2 before xmass.

I'll take one of each of these:

$15.00 60" x 96" (5.55oz)
$20.00 60" x 120" (6.94oz)
