Cub Camper Curtains
« on: November 29, 2011, 08:34:10 AM »
Does anyone have a cub  with the inside curtains ? I would like to make some (or more to the point - get mum to ) Would it be possible to get someone to take a pic of them for me so that I can see how they attach ......

Cheers Chippy :D

I own a Cub but it is still in Melbourne and do not get to pick it up for another 13 sleeps  ;D so can not take a picture for you at this stage. If by the time I have picked it up I would be more than happy to take pictures for you.

I do know my curtains are blue. As far as I can remember I think the curtains attach with velcro but could be mistaken.

We fitted some new curtains the Snowcave a while back. I harrassed Ross at Cub to send me out some of the plastic track they use. It is sewn to the tent and the piece on the curtain is sewn up side down so it hooks onto the tent piece.

A gratuitous shot from my camper thread that shows Mrs Snow holding up the material sourced from Spotlight that closely match the colours we wanted. http://myswag.org/forum/index.php?topic=1477.msg33738#msg33738

Hi Chippy,

As my CUB Comprade mentioned the curtains are secured to the canvas with a special plastic track.

Unfortunately my CUB is at CUB for the repair work so I can't take a picture for you. 

The clips that are sewn on tot he curtain material can be a bit fragile once they are sen on and tear so that is something to be careful of.

cheers, Chris

Hi All
We (well, one of us) decided the curtains in our Cub Supermatic Regal Off Road could be spruced up, so I contacted Lisa at Cub in Sydney. A complete new set of curtains in Cub's current colour (double curtains for all three windows up the bed end) was $80.00 in total. (Freight with a courier was another $10.00.) They've got the normal plastic curtain track fitted at the top and the ones behind the bed have the usual Velcro at the bottom.
We reckon they're great value (doubt if we could have made any with all the fittings for less) and Cub were extremely helpful to deal with.
We've hung one of the older ones in the earlier pattern at the window opposite the door. Looks good too.

Hi Chippy,

My 2009 Cub Escape curtains have velcro only at the bottom of the curtain, at the top is a flexable grey strip hook on both the top of the curtain and the cab tent wall,  they mate together and allow you to slide the top of the curtain open and closed.

Sorry no pictures but my carport roof makes it a slow process to open the Cub escape up, and I also have to unbolt and drop the central hoop to open it under the carport.  http://myswag.org/forum/index.php?topic=5195.50

Our 2010 Cub Drover has velcro on the top for the side curtains, and velcro on both the top and the bottom.
