Today I marked the cutline for the fairing using the template supplied. The design has changed since this template was last updated because the forward hole on the template does not exist on the canopy side rails.
Sides marked...plenty of overhang left over which is good.
I connected the lines from one side to the other in order to mark the front edge of the fairing.
I then used the Dremel to surgically trim up to about 1/16 away from the edge of the line.
If you don't have one of these diamond cuttoff wheels, GET ONE! They work very well on this fiberglass. Hardly any wear on it and it does not heat up the epoxy like the reinforced fiber ones do.
I then used a larger diameter sanding drum in the drill to get the large radius corner. I used a sanding block to sand the long straight edges to the line.
I used a small diameter sanding drum to get the small radius corner to comply.
