Look at the bends in this piece of bar for securing the canvas.

Now compare with this relatively straight one. Which is correct? For that matter, what are the two little bolts for??

I put some light lubricant onto a portion of the faded, powdery paint, and it changed color a lot. Maybe original military paint. Doesn't seem to be any additional layers of paint anywhere on the whole thing.

God bless the dry areas of central Queensland. Nothing preserves and protects metal like lack of rain. Many a farmer may wish to argue though.
