Firstly because my experiments in heating and molding smaller pieces (for the landing light covers for my T-6) resulted in failure time after time. The movement of the plastic was very hard to gauge and there would always be twists and inconsistencies. Practice didn't seem to cause improvement. <br /><br />Secondly, I want to be able to paint the interior of the frames and that would be difficult. I found this out after laying on sheet frames over the cast frame on another T-6.Arkonbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11056581569235023216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6472541971916260953.post-35042871441463951992010-10-08T23:23:13.151-04:002010-10-08T23:23:13.151-04:00Did you consider taking a piece of heated clear pl...Did you consider taking a piece of heated clear plastic sheet and using the old canopy as a form and create a thinner canopy and then applying the frame pieces afterwords?-Warren Zoellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12662160471738573334noreply@blogger.com
