    @tikka yeah it's just such a substantial item to send down there. If there are no other reputable options I'll use them

    You have done well to break a Hilleberg. Twin Needle are awesome. You might want to check first with Motomox (the distributor) if they have a suggested repair agent. If it's just a patch I seem to recall that they provide some material with the tent kit, might be an idea to provide to the repair agent if you can find it.

    I'll have a chat to Motomox

    We were in a horrific storm last December on the west coast, 120kmph winds, wasn't good. Snapped a pole on the black label Atlas and punctured the tent material.

    well when you ask a stupid question...you get appropriate answers....
    to be more specific...do google search for canvas folk in your area.... plenty around who do silage covers,the local saddle shop might have tame seemstress too.... with good machine and ability to use it.
    sorry I dont live in waikato anymore so cant be more specific...LOL.

    Huh? You have no idea what you're talking about. There is one supplier for Hilleberg in NZ and even they don't have any suggestions... so I'm asking those who may have had experience.

    Please leave my thread, you're of no help with your dribble
