What about magnets.. I was thinking of trying that but how does one keep them from pulling out of the fixed piecie (the fuse) and removable.. (the hatch)
Don't think I'd rely on magnets. I bashed a Telemaster 40 and held the hatch on with two rather strong cabinet door magnets. Unfortunately, the engine vibration promptly shook the hatch loose. So much for that idea (:-).

Yeah.. i was thinking about the rare earth type magnets which are very strong but having a hatch come off on the bottom side would not be good.
