I have a steel I leave set up all the time at church. I've had issues with small kids standing on my pedal board. I was thinking of a cover that would go all the way to the floor. I'm thinking, out of sight, out of mind. Does anyone know of someone who makes a cover like this? I talked to assistant pastor about announcing for everyone to keep the kids off the stage, but I figured just in case one did get on stage, I'd try something like the cover. I have a GFI ultra sd-10.

Sharp does custom work. I'd talk to them and see if they can do a full skirted cover.

http://www.studioslips.com/ is another source for custom work.

personally, I would save the cost of having a big heavy full length custom cover made, and use the cover you have, and just cover the entire steel, cover and all, with a quilt or heavy blanket of some sort... thats what i have always done.. In 41 years of owning steel guitars, never had a problem with a blanket or sheet over it.. People pass right by... bob

Ray..You might check Lowes or Home Depot for grill covers. Noticed a few on the Lowes site whose dimensions may serve the purpose.

If I was determined to leave my guitar at the church, and experienced the issues you've described, I'd ask the pastor if I could leave it (just the guitar) in his office.
