Finished up the bottom cushions for the bench. I wanted something durable and easy to remove. I also wanted them to fold up when accessing the storage below the bench.

I used a set of snap fasteners to secure the cushions to the underside of the bench.

Seat material is 500D Cordura Nylon.

Cushions are made with “firm” 3 inch foam.

Also nice to sleep on when we have 3 people traveling.

Made a quick visor bag to hold my registration and proof of insurance. Nothing fancy, but it works.

That's good sewing. I sew stuff for my sailboat and couldn't begin to do so well.

Appreciate it!

Sewing is hard if you don't do it all the time or if you don't have access to good machines and materials.

Well, I test lighted my glow plugs, 2 were not working anymore. Time to go…

Here are the part numbers if you’re curious.

Please god, use anti seize when doing these so the next guy doesn’t want to die when removing them.

So fresh!

The Australian and American FM frequency is the same from memory

Working on some magnetic privacy screens for the truck.

They’re insulated, but kinda ugly. I don’t know, might go with something else.

Good news is that they’re super easy to pop on or take down.

I think they look fine - if you don't want them I'll take them off your hands. What is that magnetic cloth strip? And what foil cloth did you use? I've been planning on sewing up a set.

Thanks! They will probably be just fine!

As for materials....

Reflectix BP48010 Double Pack Insulation, 48 in. x 10 ft​

and

C-Zip 5cm magnetic zipper chain. (I think it was the 5cm)​

Looking great Mate! keep them coming

Built the second back window cover today, they’re so fast to install and remove. I think I will build a whole set and see how it goes.

Another concept I’ve been working on is an exterior screen to create some airflow at night and when stopped. Again it just uses magnets to attach.

Best looking screens I've seen, really great fitment- nice job.

 

[Tennessee Jed]

Those screens are great. I can't believe they don't blow off? Magnets must be really powerful.

NOT for use while driving!
