I've gotten far enough along on my new truck topper to post a few photos. I made a topper for my 2011 Dodge out of northern white cedar, so when I picked up another truck (2011 GMC) I decided to make another one. Since we are sequestered in the backwoods for the current zombie apocalypse I have nothing but time on my hands. This one will be eastern red cedar. I find that it is a bit more difficult to work with, but it sure is purdy.
First I had to build a frame to fit the truck box. To the frame I use the stitch and glue method; just like building a canoe, except that the frame is a permanent part of the topper. I'll try one photo first to see if the format fits.View attachment 30096View attachment 30097View attachment 30099View attachment 30100View attachment 30101View attachment 30102View attachment 30103
