Hi guys

what is the best type (Cheep and easy to work with) of material to make a hood out of?

I want to make a hood that goes from the screen to the roll bar and then be tensioned at the back with straps A'la Soft bits for sevens "sun hood" BUT i have to keep it cheap or i will have to wait another couple of years untill the bonus's start comming in again.

Ive just made one (well the wife did most of the hard work) and i got some great material from a local army surplus depot. Its black and completely waterproof. Unfortunately its in Derbyshire but If youre interested i'll try and put up a photo and if you wanted some its £7.50 per metre (1.5m wide)plus what it costs to post

could you post a pic of it.

colchester is a large garrison town so might have a store. I will keep your kind offer in mind
