New Sun shade (Thanks Mom)

[chucko]

Made me a new sun shade this weekend with the help of Mom (I can't sew but knew want I wanted)

Made me a rectangle frame out of EMT and attracted it to my ROP
Got some white canvas and died it Kubota orange (1/2 red dye and 1/2 orange) Even got orange small rope/string holding the canvas to the EMT
I still have to paint the frame work and get a few holes drilled into the ROP (just kidding I will clamp it on with D-clamps)

I've been wanting to make me one, but I like to stand up when my butt goes numb, and to peek over the front sometimes. See, my ROPS bar just clears the tractor shed door, so the shade will have to be low... or quickly removable.

Did you bend that frame out of electrical conduit?

"Did you bend that frame out of electrical conduit? "

It is conduit but I bought the pre-bent 9O deg elbows and used the but conectors with set screws.

I can take it off by just backing out the setscrew by the ROP (see attachment)

Shoot the link to the pic of the connector did not work so look below for it
