Brief Description:  Fuselage - FWD Baggage bay door

After spending most of Thursday working on job seeking, I came late Thursday afternoon until mid-evening for a work session on the RV-8

Clearly starting to run out of parts & sub assemblies worth doing prior to launching part paint prep phase, I decided to work on the fwd baggage door. I debated a lot with myself if it is worth doing it at this time, since it is not required long after the "canoe" is completed. Anyhow, on that Thursday, I decided to build it on cleco, then put it aside for later. Once the door was build on Cleco, I decided to enlarge the tooling hole in door ribs to the dia 7/16" with the unibit
