| Brief Description: |
Cut Fuselage Vent Holes |
|
|
"Tonight I marked the outline for, and cut the hole in, the forward fuselage on both sides to accept the Van's RV-10 flip-out vents. Drilled a series of holes around the perimeter, cut them out with a cutoff wheel in the dremel, then filed, test fit, filed some more, etc., to achieve a nice fit. Cleco'd the support doubler to the inside of the fuselage and test-fit the doors on each side. Next steps: up-drill the holes in the fuselage to #30, rivet the assemblies in place, and attach the inside slider handles to the correct tension." |
