Hours Today: 3.1 Project Total: 72.8



(7-6 step 10):  After putting a bunch of scratches in the skins with the file yesterday, I decided to try a different technique tonight... I took the countersink bit and put it in our smaller drill that's not quite as fast, and doesn't have nearly the torque.  I had thought about doing this earlier, but was a little worried about the potential to take off too much material.  How will I ever know unless I try it right!  I'm glad I did... this is the quickest method I've found so far!

Continuing on with deburring, Angela decided to give the countersink bit in the drill a try... she liked it too!



(7-6 step 13):  Nothing special here, just scuffing up the inside of the rudder skins in preparation for priming.  This took a little longer than it should have because I had to remove those scratches I put in them last night.  I think I'll just clean them up a bit and put off the dimpling until tomorrow night...
