Side screens.

After seeing the side screens on "Best Locost" winner at Donnington I thought I would have a bash at making some before the winter sets in. I was thinking about making them in one piece using 3-4mm Perspex with a cut out for my arm which I would form in ali sheet and cover in vinyl. The main reason for not using a steel frame is that I don't have welding gear. Has anyone tried this yet? I thought also they would no obstruct the view too much. Any feed back would be good.

Hi,

I saw a really ood personal site by a guy who has a Dax Rush who in part of his build diary showed a very comprehensive method of making very impressive side screens.

Cant remember where i saw it but maybe this will jog others memories and they can help you out.

Thanks, just found the site and looks just like what I was thinking of doing.
