Just called in to Brian's This Afternoon.

He's added some very nice enhancements to Megabyte.

If we ask him nicely, he may post some photos.

I intend to make similar improvements to Small Fry soon.

Warrior owners ( and others ) will be very interested to see them.

 

Well done Brian. wink.gif

My mods are not new and shiney like you chaps but they have been on there for about 8 years and work for me. Here's a small selection.

Thank you for that, Adam. Yes, it is on the list. I have the details of where to buy the stuff you used but, can you please tell me how you cut it?

 

Terry.

 

 

p.s. Belay that. I seem to have lost the name of the supplier and the material, can you give it to me again please, Adam.

I see in your photos that you've got a kettle, what arrangement have you got for the gas ring?

I've got one of the camping stoves that contains the gas cylinder, is that what you use?

Terry,

 

There is a thread somewhere on here, but in summary - I used Lexan Marguard - bought from a supplier on Ebay - in 6mm (I think)

 

This is is the stuff riot shields are made from and is as clear as glass but 200x stronger and is scratch resistant.

 

I took off the old windows as a template, rough cut within 2/3mm with a slow fine jigsaw (to avoid melting the plastic) and then clamped the template to the rough cut and used a laminate trimmer in a router to get an exact cut (it's a little tricky but doubale as you need to ensure the roller sits on the thin old window.

 

I think I also put a 45deg bevel on the ouside edge.

 

Thats the hard bit - I didnt bother bolting the new windows except for a couple on the side windows to ensure they bend slightly around the cuddy, I just bedded them in on a bed of black sikaflex.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Adam
