First attempt at cutting the canopy

I decided to get familiar with cutting the canopy after reading "Cut the bottom molding flange off of the canopy using a cutting disk in a die grinder. Use these early trim cuts to build your canopy cutting skills by marking straight lines on the canopy and cutting as close to the lines as possible." I know that the recommended technique is to use a cutoff wheel with a pneumatic tool, but I decided to try the Dremel instead.
