Brief Description: added stainless steel to floor area for wear plate
I went to a salvage steel yard and purchased a .026 piece of brushed stainless steel 42 x 32 for a mear 9.45. I cut with sheers a section of 21" x 16 " for a wear plate under the rudder and brake pedals. Trimmed to fit and located the pedal mounting holes and drilled. I used pop rivets to install and will position the pedals on top. I will allow the pedal slides to operate smoothly and will keep from wearing the paint from the floor area where my heals will be. before I riveted on the stainless, I used the bevel edge roller to lightly roll the left, right and aft edges to allow when riveted to set flush with the floor an not allow debris to get trapped underneath. Now to place all fuselage components inside the fuselage and set aside. Starting the wing build shortly.
