Thanks guys! Hope we have a strong turnout for the Sonex brotherhood in 2018. Not sure if we have any sisters in the ranks, time will tell. One other detail in that last picture: see the Gnu vises? It is clamping an angle to the rear wing mount angle. There is a small piece of angle (hovercraft moto...

We made a little tool to mark our holes in the bow. It centers the bit, and sets up the entry to be perpendicular to the windshield. https://s1.postimg.org/3cl5ba6i6n/hole_centering_tool.jpg Next we went to the drill press and V block to run the holes through. https://s1.postimg.org/646yxis1vj/drill...

I used a stick with an angle cut in the end to back up the lexan, while Adam drilled. https://s1.postimg.org/4w385tll1b/stick.jpg One side clecoed in: https://s1.postimg.org/1n449630vj/clecoed_windscreen.jpg It seems like it would be easier to drill the...

We trimmed and did the initial drilling on the windshield. So far, so good. https://s1.postimg.org/7nf74lsein/cutting_lexan.jpg Clecoed in. We used a ratchet strap to get it snug. https://s1.postimg.org/7rbkghjmkv/clecoed_lexan.jpg We still need to get the sides bent down more. Matthew and I also di...
