Default Sliding Canopy

Hi All,

I'm just working on my Top-Flite T34 mentor. I've finished the bottom half of the fuse and plan to implement a sliding canopy system. Unfortunately, I've never used one before and hence would appreciate if any of you can give me some information as to where to get ready made rails or how I can make my own.

Thanks

AS

I would guess you could use rails from a train set. You can get them at any hobby shop.
You would have touse a very fine drill to make attaching holes. Then use the clips that join the tracks as sliders on the canopy.

It's worth a try, right?
