I know it's cheap, but I want to dye em like right now and free is better than cheap. Dyeing isn't even a necessity. I might even spray paint and hang to air out

Spalted Red Oak hearts really works great, that's the dry rotted red center of a long dead Red Oak that crumbles to a powder when you crush it in your hand.
Our sponsors all sell trap die, and deliver VERY quickly.

Good Job. Nice looking dye job. Maple bark works well. A lot of good ideas mentioned above.

Why waste time, bro. Get some logwood dye, do it right, spend your time setting traps. You should be long-lining those mountains.

Focus, young man.
