I've fretted over this part of the project for a long time, reading all of the horror stories about how hard making the cuts in the canopy were, and honestly, it took me about 2 hours from taking the canopy out of the box to having it fitting like I want it to. Todd really does a great job making canopies and I am sure this made the job easy for me. I just received the bonding material that I plan to use in the mail. There will be no rivets or screws in the canopy or skirts
