Iv been speaking to a guy next to work who makes Shadecloth sails and stuff about getting some shadecloth. i wanted 30% Commercial Horitculture shade cloth, but i have to buy it by the 50mt roll i am only after 14m so i was thinking about getting the roll as its fairly cheap as im getting it for cost + delivery it will work out at $6.50 per linear meter @ 3.66m wide. that is what im getting it for landed here roll + del if anyone is interested please contact me as i will only buy it if i can get some intrest. |

Bunnings and Home Harware have triangular and square shade cloths in cream colour with thimble holes and reinforced edges. They are as cheap as you can get them. |

Well if you want no locusts dont go with green mate. Golf courses over here spray greens purple if there is a plague coming |

Yes , apparently they only go for green stuff, so they might even chomp on the shadecloth |

Now Thinking about going 50% Hortishade, just realised that the netting around our trampoline is 30% its hard to tell off a sample thats 50mm x 30mm but if i put it against the tramp net its the same, i reckon it will be too light.... Will contact that site that eb has mentioned for postage costs also found this on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/50-SHADECLOTH-3- ... 2eaa3c05bc guessing 50 for postage would work out $7 a metre which is 50c a metre more than i was quoted for 30.... they sell it by the mt for $13 so if someone was interested we could save some $$ |
