How Embarrassing

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

Well after reading some more and measuring - what I came up with - is that the hatch had sprung.

Reading what others had done to correct it - I installed the turnbuckle and wire and then wet and bent it into shape - That cured it!

One day you'll all feel better about your blunders by seeing MY hatch.

No problem with springback at all, but she requires a little convincing to properly close. I figure that too tight is better than too loose, so I'll live with it.

But the real reason is I don't have a CLUE how to fix it anyway.

That's a good approach. It's much easier to take away then to add.........

And since this stuff is organic we can convience it to do what we want..

Thanks
