Spent about 1/2 hour making the pushrod cover required with the lowered seat. Spent about an hour re-marking prints per the lowered seat mod published in text form on the Sonex website. Having the dimensions and views corrected, I think I have a better idea what happens to lower the seat, but it still looks like some of the dimensions have not been provided. I should be able to figure these out though from the positions of the parts (trace or mark hole locations at assembly instead of being able to drill them ahead of time). Spent the rest of the time fabricating the 1x1x1/8" angle part that replaces the .032 angle part that supports the aft bottom edge of the seat. In doing this, I found that I had not fabricated all of the hinge parts needed for the seat. I had an entire 6 foot length of hinge untouched when I finished the hinges a while back, and I thought it was odd because enough of these planes have been done by now to know how many hinges it takes. I found out why it was left over, fabbed the parts, and drilled that angle assembly to #30 with its hinge - deburred and ready for rivets (rivets ordered, but not yet arrived).
