[QUOTE="evattman, post: 52280, member: 473"] A while back I decided to buy a bimini top for my 14 footer.....until I saw how much they cost. I ordered this "how to build a bimini top" off of ebay and I think it turned out pretty well. I built this more for rain cover than sun......but a few times this past summer, I wish I had a little shade to get under. Its gray conduit with blue canvas top (thanks mom for sewing it :mrgreen: ) with white bimini hardware from West Marine and BPS. Those straps are handmade by a guy on ebay and cost 1/4 of what they do from Wet Marine.(all stainless hardware) I sill have to waterproof the canvas. I may even go a little further and make a way to fully enclose it for the winter. If I can find some really heavy gage plastic (like on a golf cart cover) that would be the trick. I'll take some close up pictures later....if anyone is interested. This cost me right around 38 bucks...... [img]https://img515.imageshack.us/img515/9193/dscf3503ut0.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
