|
Hi
I called Van's again today and spoke to Scott Risan (the GM) who answered
the tech support line. He was very, very helpful and a pleasure to deal
with. I asked about the door gap and he took the following photos to help
guide me.
His explanation about the gaps was also quite informative.
Cheers
Les

Scott Risan is one of the bright spots (at) Van's.
The sad thing about the doors, is that Van's accepts a lower standard
for their fiberglass components than they do for their alum/machined
components. They have received countless amounts of feedback on the
subject. And the only visible improvement is that the materials went
from green to pink. There's no reason that the same computer controlled
CNC technology used to produce the alum components could not be employed
to produce quality molds for the larger fiberglass components. Even if
they insisted on continuing with hand layups it would be a dramatic
improvement. Going to pre-peg cloth and autoclaved lay-ups would yield
yet another leap in quality, (and a dramatic reduction in build time).
It will never happen, but it could/should.
