My DIY WBBB top cover

**JayS** · 06-02-2011, 19:39

Great job, Dutch. I've been wanting a top cover for my BB but thought there was a way to make a simpler, if less bomb-proof, one than Finn's burrito oven cover. This looks like it! Nice "forest".

Can't let the wife see this video - she's been after me to shave the goatee and if she saw you beardless, I'd never hear the end of it.

The spelling on your tag line - isn't it "If you ain't Dutch, you ain't mutch!"?

Nice and simple, as it should be. Good work.

Thanks man, I was thinking about starting one with some old 1.9 I have, but opted out. I'm just going to order some 1.1. I was real confused how you had the omni tape but I get it now. Simple and easi to work with. Thanks for the video again.

I thought I wasn't explaining it right, that's why I made the vid.

So you got all the materials at Walmart? 1.1 ripstop without DWR? the omni tape?

That is correct but there are very few Walmarts that have material anymore. I did get the thread, mineral spirits and silicone caulk at walmart. If I didn't have a material providing walmart I would just get some good dwr from one of the cottage shops. It just happen the color really matches the BB real well.

Omni tape came from someplace else. I have a reel of it and I don't remember where I got it from. Velcro would work just as well.
