Last run the awning finally croaked it, delaminated big time, it been on the cards for ages, Big Mal's verandah is an 18ft job, so not a cheapy, lots of researching and emails later, I became very peed off as the advertised price at many seemed to escalate once they did a final tally, along with the old, oh we seem to have sold out and need to order, thankfully this bloke checked first instead of tapping Pay Now and getting shafted with a month or so delay........
Found a shop on EBay, nice price in fact dam good price, free shipping yet their online web site while having the same price had plus freight, email, confirmation, deliver in 2 weeks, looked on Google Earth and they certainly do have a shop front, so with my EBay and PayPal backups I hit Pay Now, it better be a genuine job when it arrives next week, at the moment its on a truck in Brissie............
So how do you take off a stuffed 18ft awning by yourself with no damage to van, self or old awning.......... Kidneys folks, just need kidneys ( old joke) check out the pics, needed staging to be about 30ft so the old ute, a multi ladder, 2 planks and another ladder made for a stable walk way, certainly will need mate to give a hand when we fit the new one.... took an hour to remove and thats setting up and packing away............. Took the opportunity to make new base plates for the top brackets to mount to, the originals a bit tacky..........
.. A bit flaky, damaged the paint work as well, bum.
.. will he fall off ?...........
... No P of P ....
