Late start today. About 4 PM. Welded door structure. Then measured door to get an idea of how big to make the door opening. Then some cutting, and grinding to get the opening close to what I wanted. Hung door to check door gapes. Ended up to within .091 of what I wanted. Removed door. More grinding. Then clamped jamb into place. Huge door again to see where I was with fit. .012 of an inch of where I wanted the door to be. Good enough for me. Now going back out to use some self drill screws, and aluminum flat to hold things in place till later this week for the final welding of the door jamb. Bob Dunahugh78 Royale
