Brief Description:  Miscellaneous Clean Up Tasks

Took care of a few minor tasks that have been piling up on me. These included:

- Adding a lock ring to the Zeus lock on the top cowl oil access door. The kit I received didn't have one and as long as the door was closed, it didn't fall off. Well that's fine until I can't fly someday because I can't find it. The fix is a simple one - and the same one I used on the wing locker zeus fasteners: A ring fashioned from milk jug plastic with a hole diameter slightly smaller than the fastener post. Works like a champ.

- Starting to test fit control cables to confirm length and to try out my new cable locks. I can't really do too much on the controls until I'm finished wiring in the aft fuselage, but this lays all the ground work for when the control cable task takes place.

- Cleaning up the antenna routing to the ELT.
