I spent the morning working on the left flap That work is tracked here.<\/a>\u00a0

It’s round 2 for the canopy frame. I can honestly say this is one of my least favorite parts of the project, but it’s got to be done.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first thing you are supposed to do is mark the centerline along the tube. I used masking tape to get a straight line.\u00a0
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To get the skin the fit properly the weld fillet on the frame needs to be ground down.\u00a0
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s the alignment between the Sharpie line along the tube and the skin.\u00a0
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Most of the holes that interface between the tube and the skin were drilled. As other builders have said, there’s some serious gapping around the outboard most holes.
\u00a0\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The last thing I did was drill the #40 holes for the splice plate.\u00a0
