Also were the top bows (wood part ) painted? Thanks

If you are not sure, I can help. I used the metal stakes , and they position the Bow Corners to spec. Less hernias using the metal stake adaptors. Both wood and metal were available in WWII. Top brush on a 50/50 mixture of turpentine and raw linseed oil before you paint stakes. It helps to prevent wood from swelling due to moisture.
