Brief Description:  Cut switch holes in panels

In the last session I finished marking the remaining holes that had to be cut in the panels for the remaining swiches, lights, and CB's. I clecoed them back into the airplane and gave them one more look before cutting the panels. I made a minor adjustment on a couple switches after removing them. I guess they are as ready as they will ever be to get them cut so I went out to the shop for a few hours.

I started with the boost pump switch and light on the left side of the instrument panel under the round circle for the Flight Data G-meter (pic #3 far left side of panel)

Next I went to the right side subpanel that needed two toggle switch holes and two rheostat holes and got them cut.

Finally I set up the right console angle panel. This panel was the most labor intensive. I had numerous toggle swithes, several lights, circuit breaker holes, and lots of holes for switch guards that are going to be installed as can be seen in the picture below.

All in all a good work session and a little more progress made toward completion!
