Does anybody out there know the exact dimensions of the canvas on the M135 and M211. I have a local canvas guy here that can make OD green duck canvas cheep, but he needs the exact dimestions, grummet hole position, and anything else that would help. If I can get this info to him and get some canvas made, I might be able to get him to make more if guys are tired of paying $500 for just the top piece. It could be made for $300 or possibly less! I need the length and info on the bows and corners too. I have troop racks, but have no idea what length the rest of the stuff needs to be. Also I wanted to buy some paint for my deuce, but was knocked off my chair by the shipping price. Does anybody know of a cheep way to ship gillespie paint? I was going to get AJPWWII OD, but does anybody else have that exact color? Where are you guys getting your paint? Sorry for so many questions, but thanks in advance.

DM,

If you can't find paint locally, one idea is to get a piece that is the right color and get it color matched. I've heard of some people taking this route with good results.
