Door frame

So today I got busy on framing the triangle windows and door openings. This task seems to be a tricky one for a lot of people, and I was no exception. I had watched a video or two on it, and thought I had a handle on it only to have some trouble after cutting most of the pieces to fit. For some reason I had put the bottom window pieces on upside down. Once I saw what I had done I couldn't tell you why I had, it didn't make sense. Anyway, once I realized what I had done I had to try and salvage it... and I'm happy to say, while there will be a bit more body work, I think it will turn out just fine without having to order any replacement parts.

Got everything cleaned up, dimpled, bonded and riveted in place on the pilot side tonight...

With the pilot side glued and riveted, I applied the first coat of Super-fil to the joints.

Then I moved over and glued and riveted to passenger side, sure glad I've got so many clamps!
