Just take some cardboard, cut it out, tape together, duct tape it place =
it upside down on glass panel and then glass it. if you have any foam, =
you can use that and make a nicer "square" as needed

Bob,
This was an old post of yours (well, not too old) and you commented on =
putting the push-pull knob for your fuel shutoff in a recessed area. =
I've seen a recessed area situated in the keel near/behind the pilots =
leg that I think was used for the manual gear dump to keep it out of the =
way.
I wanted to put a recess(ment) in that location and have a push-pull =
on the forward side for the parking brake and a push/pull on the =
backside for the fuel shutoff control. Does anyone know of any source =
of a source for a nice, clean looking "recess" that can be inserted into =
the keel that is approx. 4" x 2" x 1.5" deep, or thereabouts. Or do =
people simply glass something up? The one I saw in some photo certainly =
looked like it was a commercially molded plastic part. Ideas?

Subject: Re: REFLECTOR: fire warning (was explosion)
Some months ago a few of us building at the factory service center =
opted to have the fuel cutoff. Nate was first as I recall. We placed a =
recess in the keel below the stick on the pilot side for the knob and =
installed the cut off just forward of the firewall beside the sump on =
the XL's we were building.=20
I use it to cut off the fuel when I am cleaning the fuel filter and =
such times, but could pull it off in flight if I needed to.
