browning_gold Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 We are planning on building a few two-man spearhouses this spring/summer. I was wondering does anyone know about where to look for purchasing good canvas for a house. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedeadsea Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Try using Google to find Snowtrekker Tents or Empire Canvas Works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJ1657 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I built mine with canvas I got from a place in Rogers. I think its called Canvascraft. Its black and works really well. One tip I have is to buy the webbing they sell. Put that around the edge you are stapling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SevenTine Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I got some real heavy green canvas from G&J awning in Sauk Rapids. Very dark in my house. The canvas breaths better than some of the synthetic materials too so you don't get the condensation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BehindtheHead Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 mankato tent and awning is closed. Viking is now making the same houses with the poles on the outside. i just got one this year i love it. i have a spear hole cut in the floor but i have been using it for fishing on the really cold nights. its much warmer than the otter.
