Brief Description: Spar and stiffners prepped
|
|
I received a batch of tools from Cleveland tools, correct size dimple dies, air hose, drill bits, deburring tools and countersinking bits. They made a world of difference and I was able to finish off some jobs that I was holding off for.
I dimpled the reinforcing angle strips for the skin, I also dimpled the main spar and then did the slight countersink assist due to the thick material as per the plans, I am almost ready to prime these parts.
I also deburred the reinforcing plates that attach to each side of the spar, I just need to finish drilling these in place and then debur and prime.
I have started to prepare the two blank pieces of aluminium for practicing riveting, I will drill about 20-30 holes, debur and dimple. However I will not prime, as this is just a practice setup for setting some rivets
