    Default Interest in welding covers?

    I am curious to see how many Everlast owners would be interested in owning a cover for their welder. I purchased a bit of material and I am planning to stitch a cover for my 160STH in the next few days. I thought others might be interested and I would be happy to make a little money with my machine. I have several ideas and a few different materials/colors, but I wasn't sure if there would be any interest to begin with. The biggest problem I see is getting accurate dimensions from those who own Everlast welders (other than the 160 STH that I have)...Not to mention the physical changes that Everlast has made to their welders over the years. Just thought I would throw this out there. Thoughts, opinions, ideas?

    I was thinking to set up a sweat shop in the garage, and have the kids sew welder covers in exchange for their computer privileges!

    There's a thread here
    http://www.everlastgenerators.com/fo...344-Dimensions
    that serves as a clearinghouse for case dimensions. In the past there's been interest in having covers in "Everlast green", though it seems to me that finding the exact color match might be difficult. Is a Juki an industrial machine?

    Cool, I have some time this weekend (at least I think I do! LOL) so I will "whip up" a few ideas. As for dimensions, I need the locations of leads, ground cables, handles (on top, if equipped) and shielding gas lines. Busy at the moment getting my list together for the welding shop! X-mas is coming early for me (at my own expense!). I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks for showing interest.

    I have a sample cover that i had made and we need to just check the fit and finish when i bring it back into work with me. This particular one is in green but i think the finished cover will be in black with our logo either side.

    My wife made these covers for me as a Christmas gift she ran out of green but you can still tell by the trim which one is my 200DXClick image for larger version.
