My body recently turned 57, but I'm pretty sure my brain stopped aging in my early 30's - it sure feels that way inside the ol' coconut anyway. It's strange to think that once brain maturity is reached, at our core, we're pretty much the same person for decades and decades. We just look older. I can't really decide yet if that fact is comforting or creepy. I'll let you know when I'm 80.

Welcome aboard Bob .

Thanks Possm23 & cdwheatley, Glad to be here. I've come up with a neat and really cheap and easy way to make clear canopies for my FG Models. Haven't figured out how to post pictures here yet tho. Not a real puter whiz [/b]

Hello lipercan

Chip is going to post a tutorial on it when he gets time. I'll see if I can explain it.
I usually print out the sheet that has the canopy on a regular sheet of printer paper. Then with a sharp x-acto knife I cut out the windshield areas. Then I cover the entire canopy with 2" wide clear tape. I get it at the dollar store for a buck. Then cutout the entire canopy outline. Also cut out all the areas where the glue tabs are. Then turn the canopy over and cover the underside with clear tape. trim off the excess tape. Important, slit the tape where the glue tabs were. When forming the canopy these tape tabs will be used to tape the canopy together and hold its shape. Make sure the surface you use when applying the tape is really clean. Avoid smudges and finger prints. Finished.. Clear as mud Huh

I have pictures at snapfish I can share if you like.

Good Luck
