Brief Description:  Canopy Skirt Finishing - Part 1

Despite the major Plexiglass cracking setback, I was able to muster enough enthusiasm to do a pretty decent job on the canopy fiberglass side skirts. The little hole duplicator was a stroke of genius on Van's part. The skirts came out pretty much perfect and I'm particularly proud of the fit around the back over the slider bar. Originally, I had the fit down perfectly tight over the rail, but in open/close testing, I found that I had to make it quite a bit wider to allow for the twisting of the canopy frame when it was opened.
