Title: External frame
Post by: fragged8 on June 21, 2010, 12:40:53 pm
hiya

Mike advised me on how to make the top to get the frame on
the outside of the curtains a long while ago now.

I finally got around to finishing it off today on my do'er up'er
Sea Ray SRV220

Thanks Mike

Ahh ...

you dont miss a thing :-)

It's a small mistake, I got my sewer to do the doors
and she put dacron reinforcement at the top while i was
on another job.

and where it looks like white zippers going vertically
it just the sun on the grey binding.

Nice job Rich 8). I do have a question. Is it common in the UK to not trim the outside of the windows in matching fabric?

I can see it being a time saver, but, I usually trim the outside as well.

hiya


It is the norm to trim the windows but as i'm selling the boat cheap
I made the doors as fast and cheap as i could.

thanks Grebo, when the frames are so expensive and mirror polished
why not show them off :-)
