New Canvas Canopy...

Post by BenRich »

So I've been itching after a canvas canopy for some time now...

The frame made of 50mm Cattle rails and a nice tight fitting canvas. I'm very happy with the new look. Gonna test it soon. Fishing trips coming up, thereafter Mateke 4x4 trail and Berakah in April...then hunting season starts... :celebrate:

What do you think?

That looks awesome! I am very tempted, so come on! Spill the detail - Who made it and what did it cost? Promise to not tell your wife the real price! ;-)

:shh: Gelukkig weet my vrou nie van die forum nie....

Dankie vir die komplimente!

Ek het die canopy by Rhino Canvas in springs gemaak. Totale koste was R9100. Bietjie duurder as normaal maar dis oor die 50mm raam. Alles pas mooi en daar is geen "rattles" nie :thumbup:

Sweet! Beautiful job, nicely done! Security is the only thing that worries me a little with the canvas.
Cheers!
