“No bird ever flew nonstop from New York to Tokyo, or raced 15 miles high at triple the speed of sound.                                                                                                   
  Birds do something else.   They do not conquer the air; they romance it..”

27/01/2020 - Measuring to get roll bar level - 3h

Written on . Posted in 4.3. Slider Canopy.

No pictures here.

Messing around again with small and different gauge shims to find out the perfect fit for the roll bar.
I put a fishing wire line left to right along the roll bar. Then hung 3 plumb bobs on fishing wire over the top to check the distance of those lines to the laterial wire. The closer, the more perpendicular the front bars are.
