Canopy Frame Skin

[idleup]

When is the best time to rivet on the canopy frame skin? If I leave it unriveted while cutting the plexi and fitting the bubble will the cleco's get in the way?

We're at that point on our 9A slider. Yesterday, I installed the delrin blocks at the rear of the frame and sure enough, my imperfect drilling altered the height & position of the frame. Fortunately, delrin is cheap and the side skirts are not installed so I can still adjust.

Based on our experience, skirts & trim go on after the slider is completely locked into place with rollers and blocks.

Hope that helps.
