Has anyone heard or read this also? Installing my canopy is next on the list and would like more information on glue vs screw if anyone is familiar with this.

I've got a couple articles on my site about it: http://www.rv8.ch/article.php?story=20040916070516135 http://www.rv8.ch/article.php?story=20040515213437823 and another great article is here: http://www2.mstewart.net:8080/super8/bbcanopy/gluingyourcanopy.htm BTW, Barefoot Billy seems to live very close to you. Give him a call!
