Other fun summer activities are keeping production sloooow, but I got the eyebrows done and half of the shell sanded. Varnish has arrived in the mail, so prep-work continues for that. I think I’ll work on the galley hatch tonight. Should be able to get that ready in one evening. I’m thinking on just gluing the gas spring brackets to the hatchback. I don’t see why that wouldn’t be plenty strong. One downside is that they would not be removable. Thoughts?

Also, I have decided to ditch the hasp and just use a door handle similar to this: http://teardropforum.com/forums/topic/galley-hatch-locks/page/2/#post-1450. I couldn’t find a good source for t-handles but I just ordered an extra counter-clockwise door handle from CLC identical to the ones that came with my kit. They even sent it with the same key when I asked.
