Brief Description:  Trim Cable Anchors for Elevators

This morning, I drilled and dimpled the Trim Cable Anchor Assemblies for the elevators. This is the part that actuates the elevator trim tabs to go up and down, so it needs to be strong and accurately fabricated in my opinion. I spent a long time getting the lines marked for the exact center of the nut plate and also squaring it to each cover plate. Once I got the lines perfectly laid out, I clamped it in place, drilled it out, deburred and then dimpled all the corresponding holes. Then I completely disassembled and shelved everything to make room on the workbenches for finishing up the horizontal stabilizer.
