Mail order canvas?
I'm afraid my bimini top has grown more than a little threadbare and
needs replacement. I say this fear because my past experiences with canvas makers has proven them to be skilled artisans, nice people, and madder than 18th century hatters. Must be something in the thread. So can anyone repesent an outfit that I could send the old top to and have them fabricate another and get it back to me in a reasonable amount of time and at a reasonable price? Is this too much ask from a world which will prevent me from cruising this summer due to the high price of fuel? But maybe that's another thread. Thanks for the help. |

They are located at Lake Lanier in Buford GA. At least Wayne won't deny he is crazy. They really do do good work. JR |

That's terribly unfair.

We have tried to fabricate canvas using the old canvas as a pattern. The result is generally not the greatest because the old canvas changes shape over time. Send me a private email and I'll send you info on how to contact us. Doug Thanks for the help. |
