If you're not the lead dog, the view never changes
Doubt yourself, and the real world will eat you alive
The world doesn't revolve around you, it revolves around me
No skeletons in the closet; just decomposing corpses

"Open the Pod Bay Doors please, Hal"
"I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.."

I would think that spanning the width of the bed, and having the
hinges located between the panels, that you would have a problem with
rainwater being funnelled down into the bed??? I have seen some with
a "bowed" framework (all one piece) that hinged in the front and
raised up for access from the tailgate end. Nice job, BTW.
Ken.

The hinges are countersunk into the edges of the panels, so the panels
actually close flush with each other. They are not 100% watertight
seams, but with a little tree junk in there.... The center support
panels crown the center of the Tonneau about 3/8", providing positive
run-off.

Okay, gotcha. Couldn't see the 3/8" in the photos. Nice job. How
big of sheets of that vinyl can you buy? Could it be done in one big
blanket over the entire cover? BTW, the outside of your cover is
nicer than the inside of my car G
Ken.

The vinyl comes in 56" bolts, and you buy it by the linear yard. It's
cheap- $5 a yard or so depending on where you go. I chose burgundy
because the interior of the truck is so, also the trim on the side of
the MaXum. They HAVE to match, ya know. The Tonneau measures 72.5" wide,
so no, you can't cover a single large panel with one piece.
