In light of these 2 excellent threads by Jase: Improving the Cabin Partitions - Part 1Improving the Cabin Partitions - Part 2I decided to also move the cabin partitions backwards to provide a space for the door to open without hitting the gun, as well as cut openings in the rear partition wall. As I did not have blanks to replace the sidewalls, I had to make do with the parts supplied. The plans:  The measurements for the rear wall.  The measurements for the side wall.  * The drawing was knocked up in Google Sketchup, you're welcome to send me a PM with your email address if you want a copy of the file.

The result: The rear partition marked, as well as the 4mm strip that will be cut from the middle of the side walls.   The windows cut from the rear partition and a front view of the amended sidewall (top), shown with braces at the bottom. NOTE: line up the panels against a ruler, or a piece of wood to ensure that the 2 halves are aligned when gluing the braces.  The next step was to sand the panels to size and sand the top, front and bottom of the reconstituted sidepanels.
