So we got a little rain in here in "Sunny California", so I was unable to do any outside work yesterday or this morning. It has started to clear up now so perhaps this evening or tomorrow I will be able to return to the ever-stimulating activity of sanding.
I have still got a few more pieces that I need to cut from raw panels, but the font-side angle supports will need to wait until I drill the holes for the front panel hinges to ensure that the needed clearance is provided.
As I think about what will go where insofar as the twin 480 rads, the prospect of using the gas struts is looking more and more bleak.
I may have to use a simple locking hinge mechanism... a far cry from what I had hoped for but that is simply the way of it.
I did take the time to install the rear exhaust fans and the CCFL lighting. Here are some pics:
