Viper Enforcer Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Mike, Thank you very much my friend. Great to hear from another Italian aircraft fan. To answer your question the framing was fastened with canopy glue then sealed with Future.Took multiple attempts for me to get it right though,but worked out well in the end. Highest Regards, Gregory Jouette Thanks for explaining the canopy frame install. BTW, how did you fabricate the canopy frame?

Spads57 Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 Mike, I simply traced over my enlarged drawings on to .05 Evergreen stock. With this done it's no more the cutting it out. Highest Regards, Gregory Jouette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spads57 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Hubert & Mike, Thank you both for your kindly comments. I very much appreciate them. @ Hubert: I very much hope the health issues are over with as well. I've already an a sequel to the first stroke and really don't think I'm up for another one. But as of this moment I'm doing well my old friend. @ Mike:" 7 years on one kit !! Greg, you are 'my' kinda model builder !!" LOL my old friend I really really wish those 7 years were due to being slow.
