Today was not a good day.....Biscuit (one of my dogs) died this morning. I've crying like a baby all day and Wendy is just devistated. I was taking the day off to work on the plane and to relax a little, but we ended up taking care of the cremation and hanging out. We are very sad.....I took an afternoon nap and them decided to try to work on the rudder. I got about an hours work in before I called it quits. I matched drilled all the holes in the skins. I dismantled the skins and then match-drilled all of the skeleton parts. I did mark the small parts so I make sure they are positioned correctly when I re-assemble after priming. I plan to do my second batch of priming this week-end. Hopefully the weather will cooperate, because it has been an oven for the past week. Today we got some relief as if was only high in the low 80's (plus lots of rain)
All rudder parts dismantle and ready for deburring and dimpleing
Small parts labled for easier assembly once primed
