Canopy rails installed.

Pictures:
  1. Rails cut to length and fittings soldered in place. For the front, cockpit portion, there was much to attach the rail to, so I added a couple 'L' shaped bits. The rails shipped with flat strip brass, no angle strip. Also, my LHS didn't have any angle brass. As I wanted a sharp corner for this "L" bits, I ended up buying 3/32" square brass tube and cut the bits out using my Dremel with a cut-off wheel.
  2. Notched recesses filed into stringers to accept brass bits
  3. Rail epoxied and clamped
  4. Left rail done!
Right rail is epoxied and clamped for the night.
