Brief Description:  Wing Locker Hinge

Filed off the wing locker cutout with a file to get rid of the rough edges from the Olfa knife. I then measured a rivet line just aft of the wing spar rivet line to attached the wing locker door hinge. After drilling out the skin, I clamped the hinge and a small block of wood under the skin and drilled through the hinge and clecoed it in place.

I then matched the hinge rivet line on the leading edge of the hinge to the aft edge of the hinge and drilled it out. Next I placed the wing locker door under the new hinge line to mark where to drill the door. Finally I drilled out the marked holes in the door and attached it to the aft edge of the hinge.
