Brief Description:  Rear seat rudder pedals - drilling pushrods

Tonight I drilled the pushrods after receiving the V-Drill guide. That is the way to drill pushrods I tell you! It’s very nice tool indeed. Unfortunately, I riveted both pushrods without putting the snap bushings on! So what should have taken me 45 minutes - took two hours as I tried to slide the bushing over the rivets - with no success - so I drilled out the rivets and then put the snap bushings on and then re-riveted the pushrods. I put the pushrods on and took a picture of the final - complete - rear seat rudder pedals... well, I still need to prime and paint the guide brackets and cotter pin the castle nuts (after painting) so there is that.
