So that I could prime the side skins and the aft lower skin in one go, I got on with finishing the aft lower skin. \u00a0For the tailwheel version, a slot has to be cut to accommodate the tailwheel spring holder. \u00a0I have seen a few ways of doing this but went my own way! \u00a0I photocopied the plan from the drawings and then aligned it with the holes in the lower skin. \u00a0I actually cleco\u2019d the drawing on to ensure alignment. I cut the slot roughly with the bandsaw and then finished it with files – both vixen and needle files. \u00a0It turned out well.<\/p>\n

\"Lower<\/p>\n

I also drilled the 3\/4\u201d hole and 9\/16\u201d hole. \u00a0I used the step drill for both. \u00a0The 9\/16\u201d is 14.3 mm and the step drill is near as dam it.<\/p>\n

Next up was some wiring placement which needs to be fed in between the LH stiffener and the bulkhead. I put all the bushings in the bulkheads and then fed the rudder cables through.<\/p>\n

I took the opportunity to scuff-up the tailwheel spring holder ready for priming as the powder coat wasn\u2019t great and this will be exposed to the elements.<\/p>\n

\"Tailwheel<\/p>\n

I wanted to test fit this on the lower aft skin along with the rearmost bulkhead. I think it may require some trimming of lower aft skin so that when bolted on, the spring holder doesn\u2019t touch the skin.<\/p>\n
