Brief Description:  Bent longerons (10-6)

It’s nice to see some of the bigger skin come out of storage…I feel like I’m making better progress and finishing up pages in the instructions. Sometimes you feel a little lack of progress, when it takes several weeks to get past one page of instructions. Anyway, I marked up the longerons for step2 and proceeded to whack on them to get the small bend needed. I initially tried using the digital protractor to get to 2-degrees of bend, but it worked best to just lay the sin out on the table and keep trying to match fit it to the skin angle. Of course, as you bend it one direction it wants to bend 90-degrees to that angle as well. So, I ended up bending a little further than I needed for the skin fit, then whack it back (90-degrees) so it will lay flat. In the end, it just a lot or iterations to get everything to line up and still lay flat. I think it turned out well.
