No Ade, ive made mine. It had to be a little different because my bus is a little different, as I`ve welded a thing or two on this bus including a new roof strengthener and roof panel etc etc etc. BUT !!!!!!! While I has your attention !!. My pop top is now sporting a smashing Hawaian beach scene for me to wake up to. My rear ceiling will mostly be a certain nebula with the stars lit up but but but my front ceiling (cab) ???????? I`ve looked at helicopter roof sections with knobs and whistles and gauges etc, but I`m not convinced.
Ive had an idea from Pippa about making the cab area ceiling look like a cab area ceiling but with a sun roof and maybe a sunny sky and a little cloud for effect. And that sounds OK, but I then thought ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if I had a sunroof picture in my cab with something happening,,,,, ??????????????? Maybe a ,,,,,, or a helicopter crashing or a monster trying to break into the van or a Python slithering through the sun roof or a ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Come on guys give me some ideas :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Haha, we're not at this rate. Just had a message about Dubs at the pub this weekend and I can't go, next weekend is my local one in Bristol and I can't go, it's all going a bit wrong at the moment. Job interviews all over the place and a hundred and one other things all colliding in my little universe. Next one I got for definite is the Dubs at the Castle at Caldicot then Dubs at the beach down Paignton for the following weekend. I've not booked up too far in advance with this being unemployed and will have to start a new job soon. Trouble with job hunting is they're thin on the ground, all I want is sixty plus k and maybe one or possibly two days a week. :roll: Anybody would think I was asking for the moon. :mrgreen: I am looking after your mug bud and I must polish it at least once a week :mrgreen:

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,l, gives me an excuse to spit in it :lol:

Right, I've started plotting it out but had to go and get drunk with the girlfriend, so I've brought it with me. I've got a few ideas for getting the whole thing on and printing it out:

-continue plotting it out, kind of time consuming and a little difficult (reverse engineering the curves to find their centre points etc isn't that accurate just using a compass and trial and error, but it'll get there)
-scan templates using a hand scanner, which I don't have, and trace over them with the line drawing. Would need to get them scanned as I can't do it
-Scan templates using my phone, apparently you can do that. Phone is out of action ATM, battery's dead. Could be done by the weekend though, assuming the new battery fixes it

I've brought the templates with me, and I'm probably going to try and scan them tomorrow at work (got a big plotter here) as I'm living in the camper at the moment, so there aren't a lot of flat surfaces to work on. Thought about using the long side panel as a surface, but that's not flat either
Will update regularly, I'm getting fed up with myself for having these and not doing anything with them. especially since I want a headliner.
