Kammback progress

Didn't get it quite done but made a lot of progress. Somehow the angle is now 17 degrees, not sure what happened but I think it will be OK since the roof in front of the hatch is 10 degrees already. Still have the trickiest part left, the corners, should be able to finish it up tomorrow. The sides were left long until the corners are completed then they will be trimmed. The sides are aluminum so I think I'm going to polish them instead of painting, I'll paint all the steel parts though.

Kammback begins

The beginnings of a Kamm back extension for my Metro, this is going to be a (hopefully) bigger and better permanent version of the cardboard prototype. The angle is 15 degrees and as shown here it's 36" wide. It will have smoked plexiglass for the flat sections seen here and sheet-metal will enclose the rest. The original glass will be removed before construction progresses much further. It's been raining for the last 2 days so hopefully tomorrow I can get this finished.

The scrap masonite panel on the bottom is just for mock-up, it will be plexiglass when finished.
