I wasn't feeling 100% today and decided in the morning to skip the priming until next weekend. Luckily I've been following Flight Chops on Youtube and he posted the first flight video of his RV-14. Well that got me motivated and I went ahead and primed the rudder parts except the skins today. I'll do those next Saturday.
As I write this I'm very tired. Today was a long and exhausting session. Temps were in the 90's and my energy level was low to start with. Tomorrow we go back into the office for the first time since March of last year, so working on the plane during the weekday after work might be more difficult since I'm burning 45 minutes driving home now. Fortunately, it's only 2-3 days a week in the office and the rest is virtual.
I created some cradles for the stiffeners and shear clips so they wouldn't fly off the table when I blasted them with primer. Worked like a charm as the parts never moved a bit.
It's becoming an assembly line for priming now.
This was about 4 hours worth of work to scuff and prep the parts.
Finished parts. I'm reasonably happy with the results.
