Brief Description:  Canopy storage door

Working on getting the storage compartment door cut and fitted. I initially wanted the largest door possible for easy access but then decided to cut it down a bit so that there would be plenty of room for the hinge rivets as well as the "lip" rivets. The lip will be the additional layer of sheet that the door will lay on top of when closed and I didn’t want all those rivets to interfere with laying the cover/door assembly down flat on the fiberglass container.

Always better to start too big and cut it down than to start too small. I did some sanding/smoothing on the door and frame and the fit is almost there.
