Another view of the console primed.

Have built hatches for dry storage area and for access to the inside. Want to be able to get at the wiring and such w/out standing on my ear and other parts not meant to be stood on.
Drainage channels for the dry storage hatch (notice the holes in front). Will use brass threaded inserts and machine screws for the upper part. All seams will be trimmed with mahogany strips.
