Brief Description: Canopy fitup - lexan II big cut

Strapped the buble in place and carefully marked the location of the edges on the fuselage and canopy protective film With some blue tape and marker, marked the location of the canopy frame and roll bar and the location of the "bit cut line" Carefully with a mini circular saw with an abrasive blade, the cut the canopy in half. Rough and sanding with 80 grit on both edges removed the tooling marks and left a reasonable edge for handling

Marking the line for the cut

Done! no drama.
