Brief Description:  Gear Tower - deburring, scuffing, cleanin

Mundane.....I deburred all of the gear tower components (both edges and holes), I then scuffed the sides that would be primed (I am leaving the cockpit side of the parts unprimed as I plan to use a more durable expoy primer for those parts, but the insides get the 7220 primer treatment). I then cleaned with acetone and then primed. Doesn't sound like much if you say it real fast, but it was a solid 2+ hrs.

PS I also machine countersunk the nutplate attach holes on the aft side of the right gear tower per the plans.
