James,
I like your steel canopy, too.

What would you estimate it's thickness at, 1/8" (I'm not good with the "guages" of steel, as they translate into inches).
How heavy is it? And if you do not know,
the reason I ask is, I've heard the Kubota, 'glass canopies are so heavy, that one (average) man won't be able to stand them back up, if they've folded them down, which I will have to do, to get into three of my four garage/barn doors.
And while I can see another poster's point about repairability of a 'glass canopy, steel is pretty forgiving, too, once presented with a BFH, and/or welder, etc...., so I feel that repairability might not be the deciding factor, for me.
Can anyone comment on what would happen when it's time to drop the canopy, to get into my garage, and I've got the backhoe mounted (backhoe will clear the ceilings--canopy will not).
Thanks James, and the assembled.
