I’ve been laid up with a cold for the last week or so, but managed to get the canopy decks match-drilled to the longerons. This is a nice little test of whether the longerons are bent correctly, as the curves cut into the decks have to match the longerons to fit correctly. Here’s one deck fitted to the longeron…the bend matches nicely!

The decks actually overhang the longeron by 0.032″, so I clamped a piece of 0.032″ sheet stock to the longeron as a reference. Where necessary, I also clamped some scrap angle to hold the longeron flush to the deck during drilling.

Here’s one longeron and deck match-drilled…the other one looks the same.
