After researching and pricing stone guards we decided to attempt to make one ourselves after trial and error and a few harsh words two weeks later this is our end result. After testing on gravel roads it worked extremely well, all up cost of approximately $200 plus labour ????. Bessie. (Would we attempt this again) Not too sure, think I would pay the money  LOL

How,

Looks good Bessie. I have been thinking of something for my Collie as well but might have to settle for "Rock Tamers" as I don't have the tools etc to make something simple up myself, bugga. Never mind.

Hope it all works well for you.

This could be a job for bessie, make more to suit rangers as well and there might be a business on the road for you
Could team up with the upholsterer on the road

Thanks Doug & Ken having the right tools did make all the difference plus we have a semi industrial sewing machine. I would whip you both up a stoneguard tomorrow but you would be bitterly disappointed as I'm only the assistant and professional GOFA. Mind you I am very happy to take all the credit LOL. Bessie.

Will keep that in mind when we get to your area, by then you will have mastered it and make them in an hour or 2
