Material: Cheap heat-sealable nylon

I just spoke to Seattle Textile, and they have closeouts of 210 denier heat sealable nylon.

They have a 90-yard x 47" wide roll of yellow fabric at $3.25/yard,

or

A 100-yard (or 150 yard) x 47" wide roll of black fabric at $3.50/yard.

Yellow was the lightest color I could find...I was hoping for white or natural for less visibility through light-colored SOF's. Or, black would look like black sealskin!

If I could get commitments on at least 50 yards of it, and if we can collectively decide between yellow and black, I'll buy it as a group purchase, and sell the rest at SSTIKS or R2K2. You would pay $3.25 or 3.50/yard and a portion of the shipping cost. Seattle Fabrics price is $12.75/yd for the same stuff.
