About Car Canopy Covers

A shopper wants to know…
I want to construct a aluminum car port/porch. The roof I want is aluminum, where can I find it..?
I want to know what they are called and where I could find them, I have looked in Home Depot, Aces, and some metal companies.
Something like this :

But did you “ask” at Home Depot; ours [Tampa] carries the materials.
You can also do a “local Google” for aluminum buildings and/or screen rooms; they also carry the DIY components for the carport
Look in the classified ads under building supplies or portable buildings for the same local info.

What kind of sewing machine should I get?
I have a baby boutique and would like to add; baby bedding, blankets, burp cloths, car seat canopy‘s, and nursing covers. I have never used a sewing machine before and no nothing about sewing. What kind of sewing machine is good for beginners, and what kind of stitches do I need to use for such items? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Actually, everything you’ve mentioned can be made with a straight stitch only machine. Who’s making the patterns for you? Home sewing patterns are not licensed for production like you want — and they’re not made to sew easily either.

Looking for infant car seat cover for Graco Safeseat?
Hi I have a Graco Safeseat and would like to purchase a cute cover for it. We are expecting our 2nd child in November. Where have you purchased them from and how exactly do they work. Does the entire canopy piece come with it? We have had a problem with our current canopy falling off…

You need to go to the replacement parts section for graco or call them http://www.gracobaby.com/ReplacementParts/Pages/ReplacementParts.aspx You do not need to use other than the recommended seat cover or parts for safety.

ahhh I found out mice have taken residence in my beautiful 300zxtt!! now what?
today I got really freaked out when I pulled my 300zx out of my garage and mice scattered out from underneath.. I saw maybe 2. I’ve been storing the car in a car canopy with cover over the car for about 3yrs and its been working fine and kept it pretty clean. I’ve always seen bigger animals go in there and sit on the car like cats but they never could really do major damage so I wasn’t bothered too much by it.. This is the first time Ive noticed the mice problem. I sorta and mad at my sister because she put some old foam matting the there because she didn’t feel like throwing it away..I thought maybe they used that a home building material.. unfortunately I don’t have a real garage to store the car in for now…Im gonna clean and try to remove the mice..but anyway I can make sure they don’t move back in?

The mice don’t care about your sisters old foam mat when they have the foam and upholstery of a 300zx to chew up and make a bed in.
Hop on down to the garden shop and get some mice pellets. They look like green alf alfa pellets and are really effective in eliminating the little critters. Jus scatter the pellets around the garage. In a few days they will all be gone, and any new visitors will be taken care of immediately.
