Maybe if you drive up there, he'd consider giving you half your money back (half the work == half the money), oh and your tub too.
Good luck!

3 or so hours worth of work tonight. Yes I am reassembling the trailer upside down... I found it easier to deal with when only myself to do the lifting.... Got my 3 year old trained now to snag sockets for me not to sure If this is helping or hindering the process!
As far as sandblasting goes returning to the individual was a bust! Wouldn't even answer the door! My solution was simple elbow grease, scraper, sander, buffer, and primer......

Looking good! I must say that those bolts look a bit too short for my taste. Im used to aircraft and minimum of 2 threads past nut is our rule. Even with lock washers.

Sorry, dont mean to be negative, just want you to be safe!

Im waiting to start my M416 and reading threads like yours motivates me!

Wish you the best!

Yes i got the tub back... Me and a buddy went up to the guys house ready to "talk some sense into him" and he acted if he had done nothing wrong. We asked nicely for the tub and loaded it up without incident and haven't looked back since.....
