    Anyone have a photo of the sides of the tub where the three footman loops are located to secure the canvas top? id like to see some measurements so i can drill the holes and place mine in the correct locations in case i want to buy a canvas top later on.

    IMO, wait until you get the top and drill all the holes for the footman loops. Easiest and less error that way. I did that on my 3A and I have no errors at all. I put some primer in the holes with a paintbrush to prevent rust and put masking tape down when I marking the holes in case I didn't like it and it protected the paint from chipping.

    Mine had a factory canvas top on it. Let me know if you still want the measurments and I'll get them or if you want to wait for the top.
