Good point. It could be lower. Jonathan wanted things tight and clean and went the extra mile. It is .016 and pretty flexy. Will double check.That inside panel is very high. Make sure you can pull it out with the instrument panel in place for future maintenance and when that fuel valve fittings start to leak.

Good ideas especially for a narrow Cub. Boot cowl is already built and nutplated as a 3 piece. Jonathan is doing final windshield fitting and door post trim strips. Then engine mount and engine mocked up to begin building the cowls.If you make the sides of that top piece shorter and build it into a 3 piece it will be easy to access stuff behind the panel. DENNY
Yeah doors are all done with their polycarbonate skin. The aluminum door frames fit quite loose and rely on the polycarbonate overlapping the structure for a "seal"
Don't worry the the castle nuts are not the permanent hardware.
Jonathan got a loaner O-290 hung this morning to build the top and side cowls around.View attachment 64364View attachment 64365View attachment 64366

Oops. We were probably supposed to do that.I did lexan doors on my seaplane doors like you did. About 3/8" over edge, before mounting I stuck each side in a brake and put a 10 degree bend on them. Seals better
