 |
|
I'm experimenting with various ways to fasten the canopy to the hoops. The
factory approach uses NAS548p6-10 self-tapping screws. But they don't say
(plans or photo guide) what size hole to drill in the tubes after the #40
pilot hole through the canopy and the tube. The best information I've been
able to find (for a similar screw on McMasters Carr) says a #32 hole. Anyone
have any advice?

Craig,
