Default Cirrus canopy frame repair

Hello all,

I need to repair my canopy frame for my Cirrus which was accidentally cut to
get the hinges out. So now I need to fill a gap where the hinges were so
that I can re-fit them. Obviously I am worried that this needs to be the
strong part of the frame to hold the hinges, but without greating a 'lump'.
It might mean that I need to cut down some of the grame thats left before
building it up, but I am not sure how to go about this repair job. The frame
was made from fibreglass.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
LP
