Brief Description:	Trimmed Right Counterbalance Weight
I trimmed the right counterbalance weight according to the plans. After measuring and marking, I used a 1/2 inch drill bit in the drillpress to get my radius then used a hacksaw to cut the rest off. I smoothed it all out using a file. All I can say about cutting lead is have lots of patience because it is slow going. I won't be trimming the left counterweight like this because some say you need the extra weight to counter the weight of the electric trim motor and trim tab.
