Yep.  I'm glad I've got two of them.  I can keep the painted one nice and 
safe while testing control & seat configurations in the prototype.

I discovered today that my fancy new seat has the seat pan too high, so if 
you close the canopy, your head sticks out the top. *facepalm*

I cut 4-1/2" off the bottom and it's back to a similar height as the car 
seat.  Makes me wonder where I made my mistake.

I'm not going to change the seat sides or the back, I just dropped the 
pan 4-1/2" in the plans.  I want to make one more to make sure of the 
changes I've made.
