Brief Description:  Fitting the windshield support

Fun mini project today - fit the WD814 windshiel bow to the fuselage.
-First step - ream the inboard holes in the bow to 3/16 for the AN 3 bolts
-Bolt to the canopy rail (clamp as necessary) which I needed to do
-Clamped the forward part of the windshield bow to the canopy rail
-Drilled out the 6 holes on the right side. I drilled undersized and reamed to 3/16

Ran out of time to get the left side done so that will be next session. Looks cool to see it on even if I'll be taking it back off shortly.
