Brief Description: Finished bulkhead, started longerons
|
|
Today I started by fabbing the F-710B angle, cut to length, tappered ends, match drilled, deburred, cleaned, primed and riveted it to F-710 bulkhead. Bulkheads are done for now!
Next, I cut the longeron angles to length, marked bend points and made the bends with Coltens help. It wasn't a big deal, just took some time. I had a little twist in each that was easy to take out on the vise. Next, I need to make the bend on the forward end of each longeron and put in the required twist.
