Any problem making the canopy frame before I have the bubble canopy?

Sorry about your Eagles Billy. They had a good run.
Glad to see your continued progress. I'm just about done with the aft fuse side panels (fwd panels completed), so good progress here as well.

Good to hear mike. Big pieces are very satisfying. Little stuff is time consuming.

How I drilled windscreen bow perpendicular. Glued strap on first with 3M super 77 spray glue. Then drilled.

When do you rivet canopy frame together? Before fitting canopy? Thanx billy

Billy,
I fit my canopy before I even made the frame. Clamped the square tubes to the siderails, put the wood pieces on the bulkhead, and went at it. I'll send you the emails of my sequence tonight.
