The cockpit has three identical canopy arches that the overhead plexiglass forms around. The forward arch was bent when the plane flipped over in its accident. The middle and the rear arches were untouched. I made a template of the rear canopy arch out of 3/4" plywood. This will be used to correct the front canopy arch. I removed the paint and surface rust from the longerons in preparation for welding the repairs to. I also removed the paint from the bends and kinks in the forward canopy arch. This is prep for the weld repairs on the arch.
