When you need to inspect and maintain, you got to open up everything to look
see and get your both hands on. The front deck is a stock RR factory deck
that I cut and installed bracing about 8 inches forward of the instrument

A removable front deck is a necessity, in my mind, and it's so easy to
do during initial construction, there's no reason not to do it (unless
the half a pound of flox and hinges is prohibitively heavy...and it
ain't!). I show one way to do it at http://www.n56ml.com/kmlfd.html
and I did the same
