Brief Description:  Canopy internal shaping and hinge hard point layup

Finished profiling, but the starboard side looks a bit rough. Patched with slivers of foam, fixed with urethane bond.

Excavated hinge hard points, with 2mm index holes at corners, so I can find them from the outside. [Timewarp: Find later I had shortchanged one hole, it was 1/2" too short at the forward end. Sheeet].

Made a level board to fit over both hardpoints and box taped it.

Layed up the port hinge pad using alternating layers of wet flox and BID. I started with little triangles to level up the hole, then switched to rectangles. I must have been stingy with the flox, because I used 25 plies, and the plans say use at least 15. Hmmmm. Whacked on the level board and weighted for cure.

259g resin used, fast hardener.

That was fun! [Timewarp tomorrow: He, he he. Just you wait]
