Brief Description: Oil Door
|
|
First, I attached the last exhaust system support bracket, since I received the hardware from Larry Vetterman. Then I worked on the oil door. I decided to go with a metal door, really because I mis-drilled the fiberglass door, and I had some scrap aluminum big enough for the door. I placed and drilled the hidden hinge on both the cowl and the door, and I primed some of the parts that have metal to metal contact. I also painted the inside of the door bright yellow, to help me see it if it's open at night or something. Probably really hard to miss that, but what the heck, it's on the inside, only visible when the door is open. Countersunk and dimpled appropriate places, and finally epoxied the hinge to the cowl, ready for riveting later today or tomorrow.
