richp110 Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 What about something like this to make your cover from? https://www.anchorsupplies.com/genuine-ex-british-army-heavy-duty-cut-canvas-tarp-cover-18ft-x-12ft.html We had a canvas tarp made up for this sculpture we built, the fabric was super expensive. Your build is great Stephen! Helps twist my arm to get more done on mine! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaklander Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I honestly can't keep up with this, the work is being done so quickly. The weather is kinder too. Do you work a 4 on 4 off, 12 hour pattern? Otherwise I don't know how you do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderzander Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Some of this build has been a bit of a blur - like your chassis work seemed to be about 4 or 5 weeks work and ended up taking you around 15 minutes. It’s like watching a TV Boxset, where I’ve seen every episode, but I’m convinced I’ve missed some. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
