Hi,
Received my seats back today from a friend who offered to do the covers for me, (a friend with an industrial sewing machine is truly a friend indeed!).
Got the canvas from a local farm supply store in the form of an 8'x10' tarp. I like the colour, but the canvas is very oily.
Also, a few weeks ago, I took Derek up on his offer for some of his kit. It was great to find Commonwealth stuff within a short driving distance here in Texas, and equally good to visit with another MLU member. Thanks again, Derek!
p.s. I want his Boys AT rifle badly, but would have to sell my 15 year old daughter to finance the transaction.....but since all she is good for these days is texting and facebook, I am still on the fence.....
Tried out the helmet over the headlights thing I had seen in various period photos. They fit nicely without any adjustments.
Thanks, David
