Cool..thanks.
Do to health reasons, I am making a career change and I took a 7 week class for ACAD and I understand that Inventor and Solidworks are the programs of choice for 3d. I may look into one of those next. Thanks for the input! Jim |

Just an update. I know that this is going a little slow for some people and I apologize for that. Some things have not worked out quite how I planned but I assure you that your dusters are still on my mind.
I have been making the olive drab products first since I have the fabric and I'm trying to use it up first. (my basement stinks) So far I have made all of the OD canvas dusters for the members who have running jeeps with bows and are ready for them except for one that I am still waiting for some binding to come in. I also have the CJ2 top project going on which is the reason that I started all of this to begin with. I am still confident that I can make the tops for the running jeeps early spring. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. At your service |

dennisanvil,
I hope this is what you want: This back has a vinyl window sewn in. The binding is sewn around the hole in the canvas rather than around the vinyl. Basically, I tried to copy what I saw in the pictures of Art's late style half cab except I did not sew a zipper and flap in the half cab for a rear roof and the rear flap only has three straps because this half cab is not part of a full cab setup. I suppose that the zipper and flap could be added later to make a full cab. Anywho, I'll get this boxed up and shipped out tomorrow. Edited by jpet - 20 Dec. 2019 at 8:20pm |

as near as i can tell this was what i was hoping for. i belive that there is 5 footloops for the half cab. 3 in the floor and 2 on the fenders. what is the location for the2 on the fenders?
we would like to thank you for all the help that you have given on this cab and the bows.
we hope that you like what we have done with your help.

Hi Dennis,
The other 2 straps are sewn into the rear panel: When I get home, I will measure the locations for the footman loops and report back. |

Actually, if you want a top that you are not afraid to get some rain or dirt on, this is the way to go. The OD cotton canvas has a water resistant coating that is very messy and can't be cleaned. This Sunbrella is much easier to sew, and it can be cleaned. I sure wish you could get it in olive drab.

This is what I get. The footman loops are approximately 42-3/4" apart center to center. HTH |
