Brief Description:  Canopy Fitting 3: Cut off Edges

I can't stall anymore. I gotta make a cut. Plans say cut off the four edges which are the clamp or tooling marks. My lights are hot and I used them to help warm up the canopy. It was 76 degrees outside today, so everything is warm in the garage.

I cut back the plastic and taped it down. I made my cut line trimmed with tape. I put the tape right on the line where I wanted to cut. I also made a black magic marker line on the edge of the tape just to help with visuals.

I put blocks on both sides of the canopy so it would flop open and spread. I also put a bungy over the top just to hold it so I don't accidentally push it off the bench. Actually this is sitting on my table saw which has a big run out table attached.

I put on my anti dust stuff.
