Just a bit of feedback on the dyeing of canvas. It was 8 oz HF and Blue Box Store drop cloths. I washed and dried them before we tie dyed. They were washed and dried again after the recommended three day waiting period. Dye is through the pieces. Cost of four canvas drop cloths —. $50. Cost of the tie dye materials — $50.

I’ve had Valspar brand clear protector recommended as the finish for the completed trailer. Probably another $50ish dollars.

Other feedback is I priced the replacement tongue and coupler and that will be around $60. My neighbor has offered to do the welding. Don’t know his pricing.
