Brief Description:  further assembly

1) Obviously there is a long time laspe here. The engine is nearly assembled I forgot to take pictures!! But its in the assembly book anyway.

2) Now this is a real torque wrench. My buddy Clint Murphy had it for working on tanks, I guess! but it worked just fine, and I didnt break it!. It comes in a case, and breaks down into three pieces.

3) On 8-10-16 or so, there was several comments on the Sonex blog about how to hold the engine still while torquing the gland nut for the flywheel. I did the following:
1)2x4 bolted to the prop hub
2)2x4 supports under the RH head
3)2x4 holding down the LH head, set in the bench vise just off camera to the left. The vise has to be REALLY tight on the 2x4 to hold things down.

The process worked fine. Nothing moved and the nut is tight per the book.

Clint dosent lend tools. I just fix his radios!
