Hatch is done....

I have a hatch :) Just had to post it here as it seems like such a milestone, one door to go and I can lock it up :)

And the other side, you can see the small spoiler in this one.

And on the camper, at least propped up :)

Finished hatch, I hope. Used yellow glue (TITEBOND II) FIRST TIME. WHEN i TOOK OFF CLAMPS IT EXPLODED. I bent 1/4 inch Okamie plywood over a Benroy curve, heightened to 5 feet. 2nd time I used construction adhesive and drywall screws through 3/4 inch plywood clamp blocks. So far so good.
