The Owner was looking to dress the boat uP with it forsale so it was 40g roll
Vinyl and  outdura canvas.  recwater top




edited mistake it was 40g not 30

[zanepurcell]

well, it turned out quite nice. I assume you got binding and facing from miami that matches the outdura for the enclosure.
Have you ever used 20 gauge roll?

Nice job, Mike.  For 30 ga. roll goods, you did a good job of keeping the wrinkles out.  Of course our hot weather helps in getting it all stretched out and snapped.  I'm starting to think our winter is over.  Lots of folks were swimming today - water temp was 74 F.

Great job Mike ( as always ). You are truly a master.

This winter has been amazing. Amazing temperatures, even in the northern part of Florida. I have enjoyed it.

Fantastic job Mike, I envy your skills. If this is global warming I'm loving it. Sunny and 80* today here in Live Oak. Perfect weather.

I make my own facing method to double face . save binding only having to bind the top and bottom edges of a  panel
and as far as 20 yes when I made small lake boat windows up north

on large window nid never go 20   and now 30 is AS THIN AS I WILL GO

[zanepurcell]

do you just cut strips and turn down both edges? do you use a binding maker or just fold it and sew?
