Brief Description:  Main gear

Marked the cotter pin locations on the main gear. Set the fuselage on the sawhorse and pulled the wheels and axles off. Drilled the axles for the cotter pins. On the RH pin, it got off center, so drilled a 2nd hole 1/3 of the way around. Greased the wheel bearings and brake cams. Springback on the brakes is dependent on how tight the lever arms are on the cams - too tight and the brakes won't release. So I put those a little less tight than I had them and the brakes seem to engage and disengage better. Reassembled the greased bearings onto the axles and set it back down on the wheels.
