Wildlife watching supplies does a traditional square hide - their product code is C29
I think Jamie has packed up.

Hi Frederic

I had the same problem last year, the canvas on my fensman hide rotted away but the frame was okay, rang Jamie woods up to find that he indeed no longer makes hides, so spoke to kevin at wildlife watching supplies and he made me a new canvas to fit the original fensman hide aluminium frame

Problem is... kevin at wildlife watching supplies couldn't get any aluminium poles, I was lucky as I had the original poles from my fensman hide which were measured and a new custom hide canvas in real tree advantage camouflage was made to fit, and it only cost about £120

I have to say it is the best hide i've had to date, very sturdy, (much better than the flimsy dome hide frames) quick to put up and very warm...

now if only i could find it in the hedgerow i could use it :biggrin:

:wavey:

Just spoke to kevin and he is going to make one to go on my frame for £129.00. Personnaly I also prefer the fensman buy a LONG way....I hate the dome hide......
Thanks for the info
