A little more framing of the rear. The uprights on each side will be filled in except the square opening in the middle which will have bubbler tubes in them.

Built the overhead console. Built it on hinges to swing down to work on it. Here is the design I built to latch it on the sides.

Nice work. I like that hinge / latch for the overhead console.

Thanks

The hinges for the overhead console? They are just regular strap door hinge. Here is a picture but a little hard to see. I designed the spring mechanism to release it to swing down.
