Brief Description: VS Fwd skin and Main skin prep work (06-06)
Made a call to Vans today to order another front spar VS-1202 to replace the o/max countersink from yesterday. Also talked to Vans about the dent on the Main skin (VS-1201), but no decision on if they will replace it. In the meantime I'm proceeding with all the prep work.
I used the material removal pieces as practice to try dimples for the plate nut holes. Tomorrow I'll try it on the actual part. I'm a little nervous about trying to dimple the plate nuts, but at least they're cheaper to replace.
I didn't like how the micro countersink tool left marks on the metal, so I put some gorilla tape, similar to duct tape, only more sticky, but not as sticky as the tape Vans uses for shipping.
