1. Riveted on all but the lower three Skybolt fasteners on each side. These will be added later, after I trim the cowling halves.

2. Assembled and marked the forward baggage door hinge support channel, spacer, and hinge.

3. Drilled out the nutplate near the top center of the avionics door bulkhead that interferes with the baggage door hinge support. I will have to rivet the support channel to the bulkhead using new holes, carefully avoiding the old screw hole and nutplate holes.

4. Clamped the hinge support parts into position, then drilled and clecoed them, using the prepunched holes in the skin as a drill-guide. Also drilled the four rivets holes on the ends of the support channel (two through the avionics bulkhead and two through the firewall).

5. Marked the baggage door flange for trimming to allow the hinge to pass as the door opens.

6. Disassembled all the parts, then deburred them.

7. Countersunk the spacer and dimpled the top skin.

8. Sanded, cleaned, and primed the spacer and hinge support channel.
