Making (slow) progress on finish kit

Shortly after receiving the finish kit, I started the installation of the rear window.  Followed instructions very precisely/carefully and when almost finished with drilling, I noticed a crack on the leading edge:  this crack extended about 2 1/2 inches.  So... I re-ordered the window.   Got this installed over this past weekend, no issues.  Also have completed the canopy open/close mechanism and have started prepping parts for main canopy including initial riveting of the canopy hinge assemblies.   Lots of parts cut out from punched parts and also prepped to varying degrees.

Heading to Oshkosh soon so won't be getting back to work for the next 10 days or so.
