Completed the Aft Rotisserie Stand Modification.
Finished the Firewall Rotisserie Mount Fabrication. I needed to round the upper outer corners of the two wooden spacer blocks that fit in the upper corners of the firewall. Holes were drilled in the spacer blocks for the 5/16" bolts that are inserted into the inside of the firewall corners. Ater tightening the bolts, 2x4 boards were mounted to the blocks horizontally using 3" screws. The center of the Rotisserie mounting plate was bolted to the center of the plywood about 8 3/4" up from the fuselage bottom skin. Reportedly, this location provides the best center for easy rotation without the chance of scrapping the aircraft on the ground.
Next, I have to build a modification for the tail end where the tail will rotate centered on the firewall rotation.
