Hi All, Ya know iv'e been wanting a dust cover for my Teac's and can never find any out there at all. So I said hmm let me search for PC dust covers and stumbled on a site that lets you create a custom size for your Deck! Just pick what style, ex: Nylon or Clear Vnyl. Fill in the Dimensions of your deck and place the order. I know many R2Rs never have any sort of protection from Dust and lint and junk in the air. Now maybe this will be a help. Im in no way affiliated with this Site at all. Just wanted to share an idea to make our R2R's live long and be clean! :thmbsp:

Excellent! Thanks for the tip and the idea. I can think of a lot of uses for those kinds of covers. My wife is quite a capable seamstress but she doesn't think she could make one for much less than one could be ordered for from that site - and if I'm good she gives me a discount!

Thanks for the link!
Look in the budget or outlet stores that have sheets and comforter sets. These zippered, rectangular bags are crystal clear. I found one (with conforter) for about $20. They can be cut with scissors to fit and some tape or heavy vinyl material can be measured, cut, folded and glued around the bottom perimeter to "stiffen" it up. Leave the sides zipped to keep the cover "closed on either side. The overall appearance can be quite nice. I'll try and snap a pic of mine when I get home this weekend.
