To answer Dan's question about Butt molding - It is a tapered wood molding the cross section looks like a smooth curved triangle. 3/4 incch or so on the bottom and tapers to a point. Two of these are glued back to back to create a rail on top of the longerons and the canopy is sandwiched between. It is really quite simple to build and creates a curved surface that comforms to the fuse inside and out and provides a good hinge and latch attachment. I had these build in a couple hours and the canopy was installed the next day. Two days (a couple hours a day) later and it is finished and hinged. Dan has some pics. Hope this helps. Bill
