The top is in 3-4 layers. The layers are glued and stapled. At the bottom is the headliner. Then there is a padding cover layer. Then the padding. Then the cover layer is folded and glued over the padding. Then the top.
I'm thought about going with vinyl top, but decided to upgrade to canvas. I have the hedliner, padding, top, cables, seals, etc. Just need to get the unplanned items -- tack strips -- you can see in the rear side photo, the curved wood (actually a composite similar to mdf) pieces to which the tape is stapled.
Yes, Craftsman. Brought it with me.
