Brief Description:  Installed Prop/Trimmed Some of Top Cowling

I looked at the suggested method of setting up the prop spinner plate with PVC tubing, but decided to just put the prop on, since I had that on hand. The prop was installed, with the bolts used but not torqued. I taped wood spacers 3/16'' thick to each side of the back side of the spinner plate.
The cowling was clamped to the spinner plate and the aft edge was marked for trimming. I started the trimming by cutting off about 1/2'' with the oscillating cutter that I used to cut the canopy. I then cut off about two inches from most of the aft edge to get the fit within 1/2'' or less.
