02/11/2021 - fine tuning slider rails - - 2h30

Written on . Posted in 4.3. Slider Canopy.

Did some more work on the rails today.
I first drilled the sideway holes through the canopy rear blocks and countersunk them. Then drilled the sliding rail to final size #19.
Next I adjusted the rear end of the slider rail side as per the plans to avoid chafing against the side skirts.
