Hi All,
I'm working on the canopy and am wondering if it wouldn't be better to use flush screw instead of rivets to fasten the canopy to the frame? You would have good tension control and less chance of cracking the plastic. I would still fiber-glass over the heads and use locking compound on the threads of the screws which would be drilled and taped into the frame..
So what do you think?
Thanks for the help,
