Brief Description:  Began fab of baggage bulkhead door

I've seen many builders install a door in the baggage bulkhead to gain access to the back of the instrument panel. I decided to do this, but of some of the door designs I've seen, and without seeing any analysis of the stresses on the bulkhead, I made this one somewhat smaller a bit more robust than others. With the size of many EFIS displays getting larger, the need for a bulkhead door was questionable anyway. I started by using a CAD program to design the door, the doubler and screw locations. I cut the doubler out of 1/16" and door out of 1/32" 2024. I used K1000-8's and #8 screws for the fasteners. A length of piano hinge at the bottom allows the door to swing down out of the way.
