Brief Description:  Begin Oil Filler Access Door

Started work on the oil filler access door by:

- Determining the proper position of the door with regard to the dip stick/filler port.
-- including the proper angle for removing the dipstick.
- Marking the door outline on the upper cowl by tracing the door panel with a sharpie.
- Cutting out the door opening with a Dremel cutting blade then filing and sanding it smooth.
- Attaching the Dzus spring to the door frame to suport the locking latch.
- Drilling out the hinge to the door.
- Assembling the door with the door locked with the Dzus fastener and the hinge taped to the frame.
- Centering the assembled door over the hole already cut into the upper cowl.
- Drilling out the hinge and door frame into the upper cowl.

Next, I'll updrill everything and attached it permanently with rivets.
