I am in need of a cover but price will determine if I can buy one. I have an old one I was going to have one made from but may wait now. Thanks for looking into this.

I would be interested as well, price would be a factor of course. **** I still need bows too!

They seem to be made of unobtanium.

Bows are an issue, they do seem hard to find and are expensive to ship. I shipped a single bow to TX which is smaller than the cargo bows and it was $75. I have a set for mine and they are simply a tube with flat ends, a company with a tubing bender could crank them out easily.

Put me down for one cover,
So what will it be 3 color camo, plain Jane green or tan, real canvas?

I asked a while back if someone could lay a goat bow on a piece of paper and trace the corner bends and the middle bends, and get some length dimensions, so I might fab a set. But no takers. Could make a set of collapsible bows. Shrink one end of the various sections so the pieces could slide together. Easier to ship. like the piece from a Harbor Freight Canopy.

I would like two tops to start possibly four, depends on PRICE. Bows are a cinch to make, all you need is some galvanized electrical conduit and an electricians bender, then flatten the ends a bit uniformly.

m38inmaine,
if you could, that would be most appreciated.
I looked over my goat thread and could find the measurement request.
It must have been in my expired goat parts wanted post in the classifieds.
I was looking for something like this. And the O.D. of the tubing.
Are the bows aluminum or steel?

Steel tubing, according to my caliper 3/32 wall thickness, 1 1/16 outside diameter. As per your drawing there are no mounting tabs, the last 24" or so of the tubing is flattened out to fit in the carrier slots. I can trace one out and send you the tracing if you like.

I didn't know about the flattened bow.

I learn some goat info almost every day.

goat cargo covers / based on having 10 made the manufacture wants 410.00 us . they want 50 % down , they said they
could quote on the end panels as well . I think we can still get the end panels with out to much difficulty . so the hard part is
how many do we purchase , how do we come up with the funds , I could purchase them through my busness and you could
pay for them will visa , only I live in Canada , and there is a cost to me to use visa , or maybe well can pay them directly ,
I will call them tomorrow . the company is c.r.daniels inc. / thanks rick shaw
