Wings 38,Total 501-Finished Right Tie Down Bracket

As is always the case, the second time around that you do something, the easier and faster it goes. The right side went pretty well this afternoon. Finished drilling all the bolt and rivet holes, and countersunk the rivet holes in the spacers. Also tapped the hole for the eye bolt.


Tonight I restaged the workshop by pulling down the rear spars from the shelves and several doubler and support brackets that are placed at key locations along the rear spar.  I have a lot of edge deburring and priming to do on these parts, so we'll see how long it takes me to get through all that next week. After the rear spars comes the main ribs, and then the fuel tanks.
