CT needs some restitching on guy rope "D"s
« on: February 11, 2015, 04:35:46 PM »
Hi all, just wondering if anyone can recommend someone in the Brisbane area to do some restitching (the stitching didnt like 120kgs swinging off of it) and reinforcing the guy rope ties on our CT and add some extra Velcro strips around the window bottoms.
I would prefer if you have use them personally and been happy with the work.
 As usual, thanks in advance

That looks painful.  I reckon I could do it faster than that with just a regular (appropriate sized) needle and regular hand stitching.

The Canvas Place at Clontarf. I have only used these guys for adding extra height to my CT tonneau cover but I was really happy with the price and the work.

I'm really sorry Apples69 I somehow missed your post. I know this was some time ago but if it helps others, it cost me roughly $120. They added 20cm to the current cover and it looks like this....
