Brief Description: 2: Map Box
|
|
A month or so ago I had reason to order some small parts from Vans, and to make the overall freight cost a little less imposing, I decided to also include a map box kit for my instrument panel. Since I've not got a lot of other works to go on with for now, I thought I'd start putting it together.
The kit is pretty simple, consisting of two map box halves, a door and hinge, and some bracing pieces. I started by clecoing the two box halves together and match drilling the rivet holes.
I then smoothed all edges, and alodined both pieces. Once dried I also painted the inside surfaces with a gloss, dark grey, paint.
I'll assemble tomorrow. Might even look at lining the bottom with some soft drawer-liner material I've got.
