cooters T bucket build

[Tjbucket]

Looking good Cooter! You will probably need some snaps on the rear unless your box lips holds it down. I tried to not put extra hardware on, and after the first ride the back flew up like a kids T-Shirt riding a motorcycle. Added a few snaps on the back and problem solved.

I have snaps 6" apart, starting at center line of body and working out toward where top stops at the framework of Bimini top. Bout 13 snaps total I believe.

Anxious to see the finished top. Your mock up looks pretty right to me.

I am also anxious to see the finished top. I have considered adding a top but can't find a design that I completely like. I am very interested in being able to fold the top back so your design may be just what I an looking for.

Cooter,
How are you coming on your top? I found cheap light weight canvass online from a place called "empire fabrics". Had it out this year in a couple rain storms and it does its job, but , the problem I found was the wide rear tire slinging water into the bucket and the split front windshield.....obviously a problem. Not trying to promote any company but, they have cheap fabric.
