6 day build-a-thon
I have the rest of the week off. Nothing to do but build. We’ll see what I get done :).
I got the canopy frame side rails riveted together. I did this with the frame on the fuselage to try to be sure something didn’t shift too much. Tanya came home at lunch and helped me move the canopy out to the garage. I spent a bit of time figuring out what my plan of attack would be and preparing by trimming the protective plastic and taping the cuts. I got straight to cutting the edges where the mold is clamped during forming. With all the first cuts made and the edges sanded smooth, we placed it on the airplane. It looks pretty cool, but there is a lot of work to do. Tomorrow I’ll begin trimming the forward edge.
