So you simply embedded a threaded nut of some sort into the fuselage and use a
torx head machine screw into the handle? Simple and effective. I like it. Will
probably steal this idea. LOL Thanks.

Hi Mike
I'm using an elastic stop nut nut-plate I garbage picked from the hangar next door.
We're actually using a Safety Torx, you know the things you see in bathrooms: pin
in center. Boy, if folks can protect bathrooms from people stealing doors and
such, should work for Europa too! I'm using them to hold in instrument and
avionics panels as well:

I think I took a flat head Safety Torx and turned a shoulder on it and using in
door handle. Ron P.
