TEMPLATE

Though I don't have a photo, I have completed the "rough draft" of the template for the panel to go over the rear bulkhead. It was a tough project for a couple of reasons.  First, curling this old fat guy up into the back of the cargo area for a couple of hours makes for one stiff old fat guy.  Second, there are no straight lines. Everything is curved.  So the "rough draft" is a collection of pieces of poster board taped together.

Now that I have the "rough draft" I will use it to create another template.  If that one is a good fit I will use it to fabricate the aluminum panel.

If it isn't a good fit, I will modify it so that it is. Depending on the nature and extent of the modifications, I may do another template.

I will keep this up until I have a single, easy to use template that fits perfectly.
