Brief Description:  VS parts - forward spar fitting & misc

I finished & bent the forward spar fitting (SNX-T12-07) to the 35 degree angle specified. The part got a LOT of "orange peel" on the outside of the bend from bending stresses. I removed this with the scotch-brite wheel and pads.

It seemed like I removed a lot of material, and I don't want to weaken the part too much, so I'm going to take it to the EAA meeting Saturday and let them say if it looks compromised. I don't think so, but it's always good to have a few more eyeball on these things.

I also cleaned up and shortenend parts T12-06 and T12-09, which I had left a little long when I made them. It started bugging me that they were out of spec, even though I did it intentionally for test fitting. I can always re-make them if there are fitment issues, they weren't hard to make or use expensive materials.
