Default RV-7 slider builder site

HELP

I built an RV-7 Tip-up several years ago, but have been asked to build/help a friend build the slider canopy for an RV-7A. Can someone recommend a good builder website that documents the build process for the slider? Thanks in advance for the help.

You can take a gander at mine, but I did make some changes from the plans on the side pieces to make room for Silka.

Best slider site I've seen, and used myself, is Matt Burch's rv7blog.com
http://www.rv7blog.com/category/fuselage/canopy/. I owe Matt a few beers, for sure!
Hope this helps.
