Feb 13, 2024     43:2: Cabin fitting - (6.0 hours)       Category: 43: Cabin Cover
Today was the big day for fitting the cabin top. Had Max in town and my friend David came over to help too. Finished the rough cutting along the scribe lines with the oscillating tool. Then sanded with 40 grit on my portable belt sander. Just took a while to get there but not too bad. Put it on and took it back off probably 6 or 7 times until we were happy with the fit. Looks great.


 
Dec 20, 2023     43-3: Started cutting on the cabin top - (1.5 hours)       Category: 43: Cabin Cover
Nothing much to do so thought I'd start cutting the cabin too. Used my oscillating tool and it actually does a really good job. Got the verticals cut to the scribe line and as everyone else has reported, it is not even close. The cabin top is 1/2” too wide. Even if they get shaved down razor thin, I don't see how the get down to the 37” width they need to be.
