It got up into the mid 40's today so I got a fair bit of time in working on the rabbet joint on the hatch door. The door fits into the opening, and I scribed it and then cut one pas, then scribed it again and cut and sanded a second pass. It now needs some fine tuning to get it sitting evenly, and then another scribe line - and then it can be shaped to be completely flush with the roof.

Here are photos in chronological order:
