Detour off plans! Rear Avionics Shelves!

 Got started on my custom rear avionics shelves I want to fab and get fitting while the whole tail cone is opened up and accessible.   I made a cardboard template of the decks that I am going to cut out of 0.063 2024-T3 sheet.  Don't want to waste this high dollar stuff!

Side one marked.

 Side two marked.

 Ready to cut!

The angles do not align with the side skin J stiffener and therefore I had to come up with a way to transition this fact.  Here is what I came up with.  It works well.

Since it is hard to see how it is made, I made a napkin CAD sketch.  Sorry!
