(8-5 step 8):
Ok, here's a better shot of the before & after of the surface
prep. The roloc discs definitely 'roughen' up the surface.
Sanding by hand you could still see a reflection in the surface... not
now. Plus, I found sanding by hand it was a little bit more
difficult to maintain an even pressure, and I would occasionally wear
through the alclad layer. Didn't really have a problem with the
roloc disc method.

(8-7 step 5): Angela
decided she had been away for too long so she decided to jump back in
and finish up the cradles that we'll be needing to assemble the
horizontal stabilizer. There are 4 of these and the horizontal
stabilizer will sit nose down in these. Here she's attaching a
piece of angle that will be used to screw these to our work tables.

(8-2 step 4):
Now I'm finishing up the last part before priming... the HS-1003
rear spar. The inside radius bends require a bit of a light touch
in order to retain the alclad layer so I did these by hand. Next
step... clean 'em, and prime 'em!
