Finish Kit

Canopy ( 4 hrs )

Per Sect 38-21, Steps 1-4 located template on Canopy Skin, then positioned Canopy onto Frame Ass'ly for 1st time.    Worked Canopy into best fit alignment and marked centerline in Fwd and Aft areas.  Then in Steps 5-7, marked Aft edge overhang.  Heated garage to 75 deg to minimize chance of cracking.    Removed Canopy and trimmed rear edge using dremel with drum sander (not enough to use cut off wheel) and lots of hand sanding...for couple hours.  Ultimately smoothed edge w/ 400 grit followed by 600 grit sandpaper (smoother than edge as supplied).
