| I finally hung that sliding door. I works pretty well. There was one hitch and it got better when I added some silicone spray. Might have to do a little filing. Lets see. |
Note: I did end up sanding the inner edge of the slot. Works even better now. I noticed if the door sits for awhile, it can stick initially. Maybe some lube. I removed most of it when I re-sanded.

Most of the sole is in. I just need to finish that long access hatch.

The sole is complete. All access panels are made and put in place. I still need to buy a few more latches but buying stuff is never that easy. Money does not come easily. That is why I make most things.
I am starting to finish what I can of the interior cabinetry. I would like to hold off on finishing the upper cabinets in the galley until I have some more of the major systems in like refrigeration and range/oven. I am getting some of the uglies hidden. I had to hack out the plywood bulkhead in order to set the inner shear strake in place. I made these black walnut covers to hide the mess. There are 18 of these of various sizes. I have finished with all of the ones that are not inside lockers or bathrooms.

Don't look behind the walnut cover!
