Hello :)
I tarred inside.
A coat of paint has been sanded, it is the second.
I sanded with 150 paper and applied the Third coat.

Hello,
Still hot and sunny days.
I hooked up the trailer for a ride.
It is always difficult to fell with a M416, it looks like a forward direction.
  Mirror is one additional solution to the problem.
PS:
I need to clean the tire (silicone brake fluid).

Hello :)
I do not find large enough canvas, I mean one piece seamless.
It's tarpaulin with reinforcement :mrgreen:
For the rope that is as rigid are Features lasso.
