Brief Description:  Primed the inside of the aileron pushrods.

Today spent a little time continuing the priming process on the control pushrods, and riveting the rod end bearings on the end of the smaller ones. The nitrile glove thumb that I put over the end of one of the larger pushrods split along the circumference of the rod, ane leaked primer all over the floor.

After cleaning up the mess, and reclosing the end with duct tape, I poured primer in both of them and ran it back and forth in each one to coat the entire inside.

I riveted the rod ends to the smaller ones since I primed them yesterday, but will wait at least until tomorrow to put the ends on the ones I primed today.

One of the rod ends riveted in place.  A couple weren't all that pretty, but they are in shear only.
