Fitting doors before glassing the bottom?

[Jaus10]

Hi all,

I have glassed the shell cut out the galley hatch and doors and begun to fit the roof hatch and galley gutter. However I am wondering how much work I can jump ahead of before I must flip the camper and glass the bottom and transom. I have constructed my camper in a small space so flipping involves a bit of effort. Am I able to complete things such as door sills, and potentially hang the doors before flipping it over? I dont imaging flipping it and glassing the bottom will deform it and risk damaging door sills but keen to get people’s thoughts!!

that’s what I’m going to do. as soon as the doors are cut out I think the stiffeners on the doors and braces around the doors should be install right after they are cut out.
