Brief Description:  Cutting & fitting canopy

My friend Dave came over to help with the canopy today. Definitely a 2 person job!

As suggested, used masking tape to mark out incremental cuts.

Between each set of cuts we sanded with a belt sander to get rid of stress risers.

Once we got the initial cuts to within about 1/4" to 3/8" of the tape line, we used a coarse grit belt to grind down to within about 1/8" of the tape line.

Then we used a 120 grit belt to make the edges smoother.

We didn't get the canopy to its' final fit this afternoon, but with some hand sanding we are very close.
