Looks awesome Ronnie. Is the glass going to stick good to that plastic scupper material. Is it PVC or something the resin will stick to?

Nice work! Are the doors foam cored or glassed over plywood?
I need to cut another door in my PH as well. It will have to wait till next winter. Nice working with flat surfaces...mine have a knuckle in them. I like the metal frame alot!

Okumi plywood (high end, light weight & NOT cheap) glassed over.
The metal frame is stainless angle, tig welded at the corners.

More progress

Fit is all fine tuned.
Locks & latches all mounted.
Now will take it all apart again for some sanding & then gelcoat.
