Inner Cooler Doors
Some progress on the inner cooler doors.
Figuring out how it all works takes time but I think I got it.
This is the finished layered door. The rear 2/3 is flush with the fuselage skin. The front 1/3 is stepped down so when it slides forward it is under the skin and then start to open up.
The base is what will hold the bottom housing of the door. This is just tacked for fitting and will get glued in.
The bottom plate gets attached to the base bracket, this holds the door and slide mechanism.
The sides of the bottom plate will have the groves in it and will be glued to the bottom plate.
The sides of the door are laminated carbon fiber laminates and 1/32 birch ply. These get glued to the doors as the sides.
Still some fabricating to do but I am getting there.
