| I can now think of fitting the 2 aluminium sheets that fit over the top of this assembly - one plain, one ribbed. |

| David made up a heavy-duty clamp from a piece of angle iron. |

|
| Still a few minor adjustments to make. Then I have to add a thickening piece to the back of the post. |

| I used the left-hand vertical step support as a template and projected the straight-edge across the gap to get the starting point. |

|
| Using the straight-edge should enable me to plane the correct profile on the door-post matching the vertical support. |

| Today I morticed in and glued the left-hand step vertical support. It is clamped to a straight-edge to make sure it is aligned with the sloping side of the bus. |

| Tony is holding the door in place. Fit looks good, but many small adjustments will need to be made. |

| The access door has been scraped and primed. There are several dents. Perhaps I shall replace the aluminium altogether. |

| I cut out a new piece of aluminium for the step area. |
