[drivingpairs] Re: How to pad the pole

Dear Bob and Beverly and ??,
When I made the pole for our little 4 wheeler my wife and I went to the 
hardware store, Home Depot in our case, and bought some foam rubber that 
was designed to fix around water pipes and help prevent heat lose or 
freezing.  After wrapping some of that around the pole we measured the 
pole diameter and length.  Then we went to the local upholstery shop and 
asked them to sew a length of naga (sp) hide and put some velcro on the 
long sides of the fabric.  We drive with that padding today and it is 
still working just fine for us.  Take a look at our web page:  
http://myweb.cableone.net/lrsmith  and you might see a couple of 
pictures of our padding.

Best to you and yours,  Bob Smith, Prescott, AZ
