Gap—door—stretched sprues to fill? Also: slight curves from putty fill.

Oh my, that is a GAP !

I just wonder how come, it is really so off ....

stretched sprues to fill can be an option or some suitabe sized evergreen styrene ?

Hi Kari!!!!!

The reason for the gap is the interior structure—particularly the part outlined in red—is pushing up the door sill as well. I need to grind that red area down a bit.

Ah, thanks!
That explains, great drawing again Bruce!
