"These were taken (obviously) before final finishing, but show the basics; rear tangs done similarly. After fitting the hinges as per the manual and dremeling out the cavity inboard of where the hinges mount, the trick was to trim the end of the tang at the same angle it has w/ the top of the fuselage that results when the door is raised fully as shown in the 3rd photo. After determining the angle, I cut a scrap of skin to fit the wedge, used some 5 minute epoxy, then buttered its underside w/ flox. When door is closed, everything planes out very nicely."
