In Response To: Other: warped hatch *Pic* (Clayton Plunkett)

: I had the same problem with another hatch not the one in the photo. I was
: able to fix every thing with hooks like the picture. First I got the
: profile cut the hooks and checked the fit . I used my belt sander to shape
: the profile just slightly less than the hatch profile. Then roughed the
: lid with 60 grit and used thickened epoxy and clamps. when all was set up
: the fit was dead on. I did use 2 layers of glass on the under side. Good
: luck with it.
I ment this as a response to Charles Robinson I will get it right next time
