Luke,

It's easier to buy the bends and weld on straight peices.
You also get a better finish doing it that way.

What degree bends (90, 45 etc) do you get Jaco and where in our valley (Brakkenjan) can we source it?

Macsteel Stikland Triangle 021 950 5500
Ask for weld on bends.They sell 45 and 90 degree bends.
You must have the O/D of your pipe for the coorect size.

Luke, try Jacil (Jaco aka 'dikkes') he is in Hekpoort and make these canopy covers with or without the frame, might even be worth him making the whole thing.
He makes the frame for about R2k
