Custom Honda Generator cover

Hi,

I would like to get a cover made for my honda 2000 generator.

It should be sunbrella Forest Green with solarFix PTFE thread, with a bungie or drawstring at the bottom to keep it on in high winds.

I'm in florida. So any quotes you can supply should include shipping, which really should not cost very much.

If it helps getting someone interested in making them, I could go for two, exactly like what he wants, same color etc.

Custom Honda Generator cover

I can recommend Sailor Sam out of NJ. I don't have permission to post his email addy but you can find him on eBay here:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/1947ab

Send him a message and explain what you want. He's a great guy and reasonable. I bought a lifesling bag and it is awesome compared to the original that fell apart quickly.

Re: Custom Honda Generator cover

What ideas do you have for your custom cover? We love our 2000 and would be great to cover as it's exposed to the weather and running.

Re: Custom Honda Generator cover

I really just want a basic cover that blends in with my deck, keeps the weather off, and doesn't scream 'generator on deck'. This is why I don't want the ones with 'honda' on them. We have forest green sunbrella and a tan deck so either color would do.

Ideally, it would be a simple slipcover with drawstring or bungee at the bottom. Maybe a spot for the handle and lock to go through.

Re: Custom Honda Generator cover

How about a Good Sam cover from camping world. You could always turn it inside out?

Cover for 1000 or 2000 model Generators - Four Corners CX-001 - Generator Accessories - Camping World
