May 15, 2021     Canopy skirt templates; Skirt fitting - (1.5 hours)       Category: Canopy
1. Drilled all the initial (#40) holes along the lower edge of the left canopy skirt.
2. Made a cardboard template to locate the skirt holes along the aft (diagonal) portion of the canopy frame.
3. Used the template to drill all but one of the holes. (I didn't drill out the top-most hole because I'm not sure if I want to use it. It might put too much stress on the canopy. Not sure yet.)
4. Removed the section of green tape at the back of the canopy, re-taped that area, and re-marked the aft 7 holes with crossed lines so I can match-drill those holes with the skirt in place.
5. Clecoed the left canopy skirt back on.
