[Tigers] top frame cotton webbing

[Rollright at aol.com]

Hello,
 
Rick of Sunbeam Specialties now carries the cotton webbing just like that  
which came with the Alpines and Tigers originally. Perfect match. He sells 
it by  the foot and has plenty. A recent addition to his parts.
 
According to Rick Tiger Mk1s had wire-tensioned tops, and Mk1As and Mk2s  
had the velcro tension system. Seems  that the straps went from three on  
Mk1s to a single center strap on Mk 1As & 2s.
 
Comments are invited.
 
There is an addendum to the Owner's Manual that Rick has, that covers the  
Mk1A folding-erecting drill. The manual for the Mk1A does not reflect the  
deletion of the metal boot. The Mk2 manual has the newer/updated instructions 
in  it.
 
So, strapping available!  See Rick at SS (as usual).
