Hey.

Sorry to be a pain in the arse but after looking at my fundage over the next couple of months i dont think i will be able to afford it. Found out I'm going to be in and out of hospital for the next few months too, so not a very happy bunny at the moment. So yeah dont count me in :(

Quick Question here ... I know you have given the dimensions of the new arches ... does anyone have the depth (from the body) of the standard arches for comparison ?

or how much wider are these arches ?

Here are the finished arches
Just now need to make copy's of them for you guys :unsure: :unsure:
What do you think , don't be shy either way is constructive: :cheer:

Fixing the old boys are up for question

1 Should i try to make them fit as per original (This will make them more bucks)
OR
2 Give them fixings as per Bushwaker style (This will be cheaper but not as sleek)

Again very happy to hear your thoughts
Cheers.;) ;)

Original would prob be best but bushwacker would be stronger.
I take that in b wacker style they would have bracket inset ready for self tapers into wing
So you still have the same curve of the arch

Really, like these :)
I would go with standard that way they fit without any messing, and you will make them appeal to a wider market, and I think they look better but that’s just my opinion.
