Marc, I've posted some directions on how to build the Sighthound's hatch.

   The thing that makes this model so extra-special, IMHO,
   is the presentation.  That you're extremely responsive
   about it (as evidenced above) only enhances my positive
   evaluation of it--kudos for kindly sharing the trade secret!
   (Wait a second, we're all in the trade, so it may still
   *be* a secret...hmmm.)

I am so fascinated by this because it seems to me to be the hatch to end all
hatches.

That's nice of you to say, but I don't think so. It might work for some
people and it may not work for others. I hope that it is of use to someone,
though. : )

I think it will lend itself well to modification.

   Very much so!  I think it may in fact make it into my landers,
   in a modified form--especially with friction pegs substituted
   for the non-friction variety (or did you use friction in the
   originals?)  That is, without a doubt, the neatest hatch-cum-
   ramp I've ever seen.

(...) I didn't use friction pegs on my version, but I think friction pegs would work great. Especially if You didn't want the hatch door to open all the way down. Todd (24 years ago, 6-May-01, to lugnet.space)
