When travelling through long grass the seeds tend to congregate at the base of the windscreen and evenbtually clog up the outside air vents.

I had made some Air Vent Seed Screens years ago with magnetic tape as a base and thought that we had some somewhere in the house but to no avail. Anyway, it was on my To Do list.

Today I popped over to the neighbouring town to visit Michael J and the poor bugger was working hard insrtalling a new freezer at his business premises. He was cutting an old freezer door seal and pulled the magnetic seal out from the rubber moulding. Aha! Thats what I am looking for!

"Plenty old fridges down the back," came the retort and so with Stanley knife in hand I went into the fridge wrecking business.

Once home again I cut some Fibreglass shadecloth to size as well as the pieces of magnetic strip and super glued it all together and the picture below tells it all :-)

Thanks Michael J for the scrap and for planting the idea and thanks also for the cuppa. You make a good cuppa :-)

Cheers
