The stainless viewport retaining rings have arrived.  I have had these laser cut in the UK.  The finish is not quite as good as if I had machined them to size, but its certainly good enough.  I thought the hatch retaining ring looked a bit odd when it arrived and upon checking the order, I realised I asked for ID 4.25 inch instead of 4.75.  Stupid mistake which means I’ll have to machine the hole to the correct size.  The rings could do with a polish as well and of course I have to drill all the holes.
