Brief Description: Upper cowl trim process-day two
Drilled 3 pilot holes in wooden disc and into the front flange of upper cowl to secure in place. Also made some refrence marks for reinstall. Secured in place with 3 wood screws
Made new cut line and removed cowl for sanding and then reinstall to check fit. This was repeated 4 times today.
Sanding was done using 12 inch 2X4 with 60 grit glued to the edge.
It is starting to fit nicely. Getting a uniform 1/32 gap all along edge will be the trick but its getting there
pvc spacers cut 3/4 inch less than the aluminum prop spacer
Wood screws secures the cowl to plate with 1/4 inch gap built in
