Here's a guy - you know him, Mike - who has learned to sew his own canvas. For his PU 8-cwt he was helped by an experienced man, who used to work for British rail. Richard N., our esteemed ex-MLU member (thanks boss!), also got very handy with canvas. The trick is, he says, to buy a good old fashioned sewing machine, and get going copying old canvas seat covers to see how everything was stitched together. Like you say Mike, one can hardly do any worse than many of those wartime rush-rush jobs! (I can tell an original CMP cargo body by the welding - splatter everywhere.)
