If you have a dealer that handles Panorama disc mowers they may be able to get one. Otherwise the mowers are pretty much the same so about any 10 foot cover should work. Or if you have anyone in the area that sews leather or industrial sewing they should be able to fabricate one.

Call a tent or awning company. They probably could cut and sow something up for you.
I'd check Craigslist and ebay as well.

cheapest im finding is the 300.00 dollar range, give or take...
I was guessing around $400.

An aside from the Amish is that you might find someone local, like Dun suggested, that can put together a shield for you. You might try asking some of the sales people at the nearby tractor shops - they usually know someone who can put something together. Mine as just about had it too. There was a poster - Ironpeddler(?) - who sold generic shields. I don't know if he's still around.

I had a tarp I got from a trucking company that was being replaced. I cut an approximate size and placed it over the mower, then trimmed the corner like wrapping a package. I glued the corners with the glue I bought from the trucking co. that they use for repairing tears. I've been using for 5 years and have about $30 in it. It's still as good as the day I finished it.

Again that does not sound to bad.

I patched mine up and rebuilt parts of it with rubber roofing material, EPDM. The roofer welded the material together. I think it's better than the original. The old material is still tearing so we intend building a new one entirely with EPDM. He has enough scrap leftovers were the material would be free.
