hi guys,i have an ex Norweigan canvas winter top for my WC51 that needs repair,most of the top has many rips and the canvas is thin. i would hate to just throw it out as the rest is still in good shape. would anyone know where i could have this repaired,in Ontario at least. thank you.

Possibly if you used your real name,as most of us do here ,someone would talk to you and get a dialogue going..and posted where in Ontario you lived..
Most of us know each other or are friends of friends or associates..It is a site that is well managed by our host with the most...JIf Peanut Butter Balls, and we don't get away with no shit ,so loosen up and give us some info on yourself and modify your profile to reflect that info when you post..
Welcome aboard and I know some of the posters here are very proficient with the industrial sewing machines and do canvas..
You will get some help ..

Hey Alex,
Thank you for the kind reference - especially the "young lad" part. Well at least young at heart! Still honing my canvas skills on a Juki 562 walking-foot sewing machine.

Brian, are you in a position to quote on a complete set of canvas for my M38A1CDN3?

I have the framework.

Brian..
Out of the fog I remembered that you were doing some canvas tricks..
but glad you are still around and active with your parts and experience..
You'll have to let us know when you are coming to Ottawa and we'll have a gather up at Gracies ..
A momentous evening ,to be sure..
It's just about time for a gather up anyway..
Anyone coming Ottawa way..??
I feel a bunch of green,greasy stories coming on..
