Trimming and constant back and forth checking took some time. Working slowly is a must.

Mike suggest using vacu candy containers and while this will work with lot of effort I found that the K&S clear plastic available from Micro Mark to be the easiest to use. I found the .015 to work well.

After ruining three moldings I had to back to Mike's instructions and rebuilding the male moId I finally got a good canopy. It was also a big job to trim it to fit. I wish Guillows would provide a proper canopy and save a lot of work. Fitting it just right will be another chore.

First assembly stage complete! Now we have to decide if we'll fly it, or just hang it from the bedroom ceiling... Maybe both?

Trial fit. The 'wooden ' handle of the magneto starter is a blob of super glue. Some dials and a Quadrant lever. There is a something or other cut off switch - guess it must be under the seat :)
