JK98 great link thank you and good prices, wonder if you can collect ?

would they be suitable for trimming and re eyeletting do you think, the 13 x16 would be just oversize for us to make a fab footprint for our tent
I had to cut ours down to 13'5x10'9 to fit our smaller Cabanon. I hemmed it on my old treadle sewing machine, but didn't fit eyelets - I've never been very successful with fitting eyelets - I just peg through the double thickness of the hem & it doesn't rip out at all.

hi all camperlands in manchester will make bucket style ground sheets any size with 6inch high lip and it can be fasened flat at door entry points by press studs worth a phone call to the trailer tent department to get prices

cheers ant

Quite cheap dads, and it lasted 4 seasons and easy to wash down and dry. Bring it back in a waterproof bag, hose it down,let it dry, job done

found this link quite useful in clarifying how I would do my footprint, probably sew a bit too but our tent is square based so only 4 corners
