Brief Description: Fabricate Exterior Hinge Pocket Covers
1054 - 1254
I decided to redo the hinge pocket covers. The 032 aluminum ones were fairly thick and did not conform to the contour of the cabin top. I chose to use 025 SS for the covers, tapping the hinges for a 6-32 truss head screw. The truss head was decided upon after several tests countersinking or dimpling the SS.
Fabricate covers from 025 SS using shear.
Stack the 4 covers together, locate and drill the holes for the mounting screws using #27 drill.
