Brief Description:  Door

After roughly building up the door lip with 406 cabosil, I then sanded and then faired in the gaps with 407 microspheres. Sanded and repeated with the microspheres. I still need to now final sand with 150 grit and then it is ready to paint. I had decided to build up the door lip so that it was nearly touching the door. I then plan to place McMasters seals along the door edge in place of the VAn's seals. I plan to place the seal on the door rather than the lip of the cabin as many builders have done. I believe this way the seal will be out of the way as you enter the airplane and your feet won't hit the lower edge and if you grasp the door edge you won't damage the seal. I have built up the space in the upper inside where the hinge attaches to the door. This build up will give a surface for the McMaster's seal to stick to.
