Half hood for narrow body

[AlexSB]

On the off chance, I'm looking for a half hood and frame for a narrow body SE (1992).

Like a few others on here I ended up making one....surprisingly easy for version 1 and planning to remake learning from a few mistakes

Sounds good! Do you have any pics or notes on how you went about it? Thanks

Brother sewing machine off Amazon...£90 easily up to the job

 

Fabric was about 20 quid 

 

Fasteners most expensive 25 quid 

 

Time...about a day

 

Like I say, not perfect but it's been tried and tested a few times now and glad I had it! Will be refining over winter

Thanks for those. Does it flap around much at speed? Do they need the bars to avoid this? May just have to have a go this winter 👍

Flaps around a bit.....was looking to tackle that next. Took a look at the bars...thanks 👍 they look OK but 70 quid is steep for something that need to cut anyway 🤔
