PVA spread on towel put on and rolled, especially the tear off perforationsand leave to dry

PhilP here sells a goodly piece of suitable roofing 'linen' for not a lot of money - I recommend it to anybody looking to replicate a fabric-covered roof.

No connection, I'm just a provider of the finest bara brith to the cognoscenti.

I spy a cat! (and the roofs look excellent).

Okay tac, let me check that I've understood this correctly.

To get a good looking canvas roof, use a layer of Philp's good lady's bara brith, and then apply it with PVA glue?

PhilP's good lady provides the suitable linen material, but MY good lady provides the home-made bara brith, as otted in fine establishments from Chester to places West. As they say, 'back home in Penrhyndeudraeth, it's world-famous!!'

Another good option is an old duvet cover, the material is quite thin. Though best to use a plain one. Oh dear are we becoming a sewing site?

Perhaps we need a new thread for that?

I think we covered most options yesterday

Decided to take the roofs off, easier said than done, 2 screws at the top of the blanking panels, but on the inside, just in reach of the screwdriver, will be fun tightning back up



Covering trimmed, and either conduit or just cables and junction boxes fitted. 2 also had guttering put on, the rest will have to wait until I get more plastistruct 1x1mm.

No, we're a cat site. That should be obvious. Well, there is the occasional Doggo.
