Brief Description:  More work on rotating fuselage stand.

I match drilled the four engine mount holes to 3/16” on the firewall which will serve as the attach points for my front support frame. I spent all day cutting and drilling steel parts for the firewall frame of the fuselage stand. I used 1 X 2 steel tubing for the vertical supports and 1.5" shallow steel channel for the cross supports. I used forstner drill bits to make a recess at the end of a 1 X 1 piece of wood to capture a nut and washer so I could install them down the tube at the horizontal supports. Lot's more work to get this all done tomorrow.
