After a year of frustration and a large stockpile of horribly twisted aluminium channel... it's finally done
Thanks to a contact located by Alacrity, I now have a screen surround! It may not be an entirely original section (not really an issue with my £70 quid special) - but it's solid as a rock and I'm well chuffed :thanks:
Not only that - but I also got the vinyl in place - and the stripes on each side even match up seamlessly where they meet at the pointy bit at the front.
So all in all a good weekend - couple of pics herewith...
Cheers,
R

Fabulous Robin, she really looks a picture & is a credit to you. Well done, you should be very pleased with yourself.
Mercs are like women, no 2 are exactly alike. That's what testing is about. In general it is safer to test motors and props than women!
