Thanks Terry,

Those photos will help me greatly.

It may be easier for me to have these fabricated by someone else. There is a local tourist attraction here, The Woodworks Museum. The machinery is all working and they do demonstrations for tourist groups. I might be able to get them interested in making those parts for me with minimal cost. I only thought of that last night. I will call in on the woodwork museum later today to ask if they are interested in taking a small commission

The Woodworks Museum is here: http://www.woodworksmuseum.com.au/index.asp

We also have a Gold Mining Museum, with working equipment and huge range of displays, from mining equip to military weapons: http://www.gympiegoldmuseum.com.au/

We also have the Mary Valley Heritage Railway (MVHR), with vintage rail engines that run on their own rail network of about 45-50km.

I took one of my door 'side curtains' to a local upholsterer. He was busy trimming a vintage utility truck when I called, so I have left the curtain with him, to examine. He will call me to advise price to make new canvas covers. I have ask him to save himself and my side curtain, if his workshop catches fire.

I'm in no hurry for the curtains, so it may work out well if I have him do these when work is low.
