Thumbs up Sliding Hangar Doors

Thanks Eric for the interesting website.I too like the sliding door concept but the problem is those door storage racks on either side of the hangar adds a lot of width to the overall size of the diorama.
I will contact the museum and see what they think.
A certain amount of space will have to be left around the diorama so that it doesnt looked cramped in a plexiglass box.The storage racks in the picture look good as they are not too massive and are of open structure.
Now I will try to get some info on how the rails for the sliding doors were made.If need be I will travel to an old RCAF airfield and see what I can find.
Cheers! John.
