Brief Description:  Rudder Tip

Got some LP4-3 pulled rivets from Kent Stitt. Used these to finish off the installation of the R-710 brace to the rudder horn. Cleco'd on the left and right skins, the top rib and test fit the fiberglass rudder tip. I plan to fit the tip and match drill the tip to the rudder skin, then disassemble and dimple the mounting holes before riveting on the skins. Used the bench mounted dremel tool to trim the tip mounting flange to the proper depth. Sanded the joining ridge and test fit it in the rudder. Needed more hand sanding to get a good fit on the forward end.
