Just a little plug for Tres' machined canopy handle (pictured above). I ordered one, and it turned out to be a beautiful little work of art.
You can't tell from the photos, but the overall size is approximately 4" x 3/4", and most people will be able to comfortably get two fingers in the handle. Looks like it'll work perfectly on my RV-8, as well as any other RV canopy.
Thanks, Tres!
