Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Goed, ek wil mos nou al lank n camping/visvang canopy bou...daar is nie n beter tyd as nou nie. Na n hele week wat ''iemand'' (Mark jy weet van wie ek praat..) in die aande by my kom sit en skimp vir n canopy, maar dis vir hom te duur ens ens ens het ek besluit om vir die siel te wys daar is ander maniere van dinge doen. Dalk help dit ook iemand op die forum. My oorspronklike planne van my canvas canopy tel dus van die oomblik nie meer nie. Ek sal n lys maak van die materiaal wat ek oorspronklik wou gebruik en n lys maak van wat ek nou gaan gebruik. Die hele doel van die oefening gaan wees ''so goedkoop as moontlik'' so ek gaan niks fancy knippe, skaniere ens gebruik nie. Gaan sover moontlik daai tipe goed self maak om kostes te spaar. Ek gaan ook nie my bender, draaibank of enige fancy tools gebruik nie, ek gaan my ou oliebad swysmasjien uithaal en net die basiese tools gebruik wat n avarege Joe in sy huis garage sal he. En materiaal...ek dink elke ou het paar stukke off cuts agter sy huis en daar is veilings en scrap yards......ek mik vir canopy en awning onder R2000...........watch this space (topic)

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Trevor, as jy kan inkom onder R1,500 wonder ek of iemand met jou sal kan meeding.

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Mark, Heinrich ek sal mik vir laar, kom ek stel dit so self bou en materiaal gaan ek ver onder dit kom, dit hang af van die ou wat die canvas/syl moet sny en werk. Ek kan baie dinge doen maar lap werk kan ek nie.....dalk moet ek probeer, anita het naaimasjien en overlocker

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Ek laasweek ontslae geraak van n werker wat meer siek as as wat hy by die werk is, die nuwe een het vandag begin en die canopy gaan sy projek wees om te sien of hy kan of nie. Sover impress hy my....maar nuwe besem vee gewoonlik skoon. Het hom verduidelik wat ek soek en die man is erg besig. So lyk die canopy sover...

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
George gewoonlik le die stok teen die bakkie se tailgate, iemand of die wind waai hom gewoonlik om, en met val trap die kinders op hom of terwyl jy aas op sit val hy en die hoek trek in jou hand in...ek praat van ondervinding. My boot het dit ook op gehad, werk baie beter.

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
George daai wat nou daar op is, was eers op my tailgate maar as jy dan n canopy opsit was dit in die pad, nou het dit sy eie spesiale permanente plekkie. Hulle is 2 in n pak en was R160 so 2jaar terug, maar sal seker cheaper wees by julle. Het dit by n boot winkel gekry.

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Het gister onthou van die projek wat daar doer ver een kant in die workshop staan en stof opgaar. Het gister gou die laaste paar ystertjies in geswys wat oes inkom, red oxide en primer. Het hom vanoggend in gevat vir oor trek, hy sal vanaand klaar wees, so ek sal more vir julle fotos kan post. Dan moet die hout net gou ingesit word,dan is hy reg vir dec, sal later al die fynere detail doen want tyd gaan my vang! Ongelukig gaan ek oor my R2000 budget gaan want die canvas en oortrek kos nou R2179 wat nie nodig was nie! Iemand het hom self hier gehelp met die seil wat ek wou gebruik het. Die labour vir die oortrek is 600 so ek sou dit kon reg kry...post more fotokies hoor.

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Goed ek is so bietje laat met die post, het die raam klaar gemaak en gevat vir die oor trek, daai man ken sy storie! het hom die oggend in gevat en daai selfde middag weer gekry, gou die sliders vir die "ammo" boxe gebou en sommer bearings as rollers gebruik.
Het Saterdag middag begin om die hout in te sit en toe begin dinge so bietjie skeef loop en die hospitaal onskostes maak my diy canopy nou heeltemal oor die budget.

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
Canopy lyk baie mooi ...duim effe rooi...EINA! Kan bly wees hy's nie af nie...
Ek hou van daai expanded metal idee bo-langs; maak 'n lekker pakplek. Wil self iets dergliks in myne inbou. Die import bin se wheel arches is 'n pes, die local bin s'n is darem nog reghoekig...kan jy nie van die hoër ammo bokse agter die arches inkry onder die hout nie? Dink daar is plek om 'n slide daar ook in te kry, al maak die houers kant toe oop?

Re: Cheap DIY Canvas canopy & Awning
As jy mooi kyk sal jy onder die "nuwe" sny ' 'n ou sny ook sien, was 'n mooi reguit skoon sny gewees reg deur die been, die plastiese chirug het die skuins snye gemaak om die skroefies in te sit om my duim bymekaar te hou...biltong kerwer gewees. Die nuwe sny was ' carpet/stanley knive gewees, wou 'n hoekie uit die hout sny toe gly die lem so bietjie...
