Brief Description:  Fuselage Detail Parts Fabrication from raw materia

On that day, I contined fabrication of various parts from raw material provided by Van's. These parts were not that easy to make with the tools I have. Some turn out OK, other will more than likely require re-fabrication at a later time. I fabricated:

- F864E-1 Cable anchor (ref: DWG 68); will tap threads in this support after painting part
- F863-L-1 and F863-R-1 tank attach brackets (ref: DWG 80, made from C aluminum channel; Parts made are satisfactory, but shall be re-fabricated with a proper mill machine for dimensional accuracy (Note Jan 2, 2016: new C channel has been ordered and received from Van's to remake parts)
- Cut aluminum tube 5/16 dia for Flap pushrod F847 (ref: DWG 80) (Note Jan 2, 2016: those tube were replaced with Avery Hexagonal Flap pushrod)
- Deburred horizontal stab spacers F810E, Qty (2), and F885, Qty (1)

I also went to Rona Home Hardware to buy a Unitbit #5

On that day, I worked from 11h30 until 12h50, then 13h30 until 18h45, and later from 21h15 until 22h00
