 |
|
My forward top skin is in one piece, but I would like to be able to have easy access between the firewall and instrument panel in the future. I realize that I can use U-clips and R&R the whole piece, but I'm really looking for something like an access hole or two.
What has worked for you? Pictures would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi, Larry, I cut a one foot by two foot hole in the front top skin and secured a cover piece one and a half inches bigger each way with 8/32 stainless screws into riv-nuts. I used fifty screws and beveled the outside 3/8” edge. Not sure if it shows on my site, but feel free to check it out.

Happy building!
God Bless!!
