Re: Rcr 40-31

Great Chris, glad to hear it.
I kept my prop rod in for monnnnths. I put it in and left it there until I was done with all fitment work. Then, on the cradle, I had it center loaded as well. If left with the weight on the pillars it's only logical that it will sag.

In an effort to make certain it ended up in the same place at final assy, I only used a few fasteners around the base of the screen unit l got EVERYTHING dialed in. Then when I was absolutely positive I was done, I drilled the rest of the holes around the front.

BTW... Bill's sun trick works wonders. If it gets warm enough you can massage and change the shap of panels as needed (heat lamps and heat guns do the trick too of course... :-)
