I am looking to sew myself a new tent. The canvas supplier that had used for my last tent dose not exist anymore.
I was wondering if anyone here knows of some reputable sorces that ship to an APO address.
thanks

Get hold of itex in Colorado. I think their website is called Banwear.
The e-mail that I have is Bshaver (at) banwear.com
They manufacture the sunforger marine boatshrunk canvas that is the gold standard for SCA tent making. Pre-shrunk, waterproofed, mold and mildew treated.
Most places on the net sell it for $5-6/yard.
Itex has end rolls that they sell for reduced prices- only problem is that you have to buy the whole roll.
I got 2 rolls of the natural color for a total of about 110 yards for $1.85/yard.

Gottfried,
It has been far too long my friend. When I lived down the road from you, I emailed back and for with http://www.midwesttent.com/catalog/ asking questions about shipping one of their premade tents. While I decided not to order the tent, they did quote me shipping rates and were willing to ship to APO's. They might be a route worth looking into in case Dauyd's suggestion does not pan out.

Bless you Dauyd.
I have searched without any luck whatsoever to figure out who is the manufacturer of Sunforger for an age.
You. Rock.
