Ive been distracted the last few days but have now progressed the cockpit frame - not sure if you can use this link but have a go.,

The sliding frame is successful ! - Now masking off the canopy ready for adhesive. Thanks to JT's tip I will use these magnets to assist location. Still thinking epoxy & micro balloons.

Canopy progress has halted while a fabricate a second frame to help another UK builder who doesn't have the tooling for such specialised jobs. (a bit more practice is just what I need )
So if the second frame is better that the first - what would you do ?

Be honest at this stage and tell the other chap that you're going to keep the best one.

Making a copy of the frames was much easier than the originals which i had to build using the profile of the canopy.
