chip box roof

[swinny]

I would like to put a canvas or sheet type roof on my chip box. One that can be rolled back for when loading chip into the truck with tractor.

 

Does anyone have a canvas or sheet roof? What did you use, how did you fix it on and where did you get supplies from.

 

Cheers

I had one on a seven and a half tonner, it was fixed at the front and had a pocket stitched along the width at the back, the pocket had a length of 25mm box in it and at each end a tape for a ratchet strap, the ratchet head was welded to the rear upright post and the strap ran over a round bar welded to the inside of the rear post at the top.

 

When you tensioned the strap the round re directed it to pull the sheet tight
