Re: Coming together
Looking good! Looking very good in fact. Is that a navigation light you built into the top? If so, a close up picture and some additional details would be appreciated...

Re: Coming together
Jimmy, The top looks good. What core material did you use to get the curve? Been thinking about getting rid of a tower and going with a hard top.

I used Coosa, 3/4 first, got the radius and then router the channels then glued 1/2 to the top to cap it then router the edges for a bull nose and 60-80 hours later wala

Re: Coming together
Does it have an arch to it? If so is the coosa board flexible enough to get one?
Thanks

Re: Coming together
JimmyG, I can't find the video you refer to on building the hardtop. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks
