Maybe a powder coating place or a pottery kiln could work? The university might have one I could use….
Anyway ill fight that battle when I get to it I guess, for now making good progress on body. I finished the door frame and jam today and will be continuing to work toward a rolling chassis next weekend.

its always great to learn new things,but with a project like this,maybe you should go for a used or low cost aircraft canopy,the shape and measurement of the opening looks fairly common.Some times good projects like this are put on hold, because of failure in other area's.Try to make your own,but not at the expense of giving up on a great project like this.Make that last,get it up and rolling first.A guy called Todds canopy might be able to help you out .
