Chapter 3 - Turret Correction - step 1

First I rework the TOGS housing on the turret. The front panel, part D24 is widen by gluing 2 small plastic strips to both side. Then used a new X-acto blade to cut out the tapering shape. Notice I lowered the opening by 2mm, by using some epoxy to fill to upper part of the opening, and enlarge it at the bottom. Then I cut lines on side panels D22 and D23 along the red line, and bend it to accommodate the bigger front panel.
