August 28, 2005 - Aft Fuselage J-Stringers |
||||||
Setting the dreaded tailcone for the time being, I cut the six J-stringers to the correct size. | ||||||
Edge-smoothing the J-stringers. It's not a job, it's an adventure!
|
||||||
The J-stringers, all nice and smooth.
|
||||||
The instructions call for drawing a line with the Sharpie down the center of the J-stringer face. This is so you can match-drill them, using the side skins as a template. | ||||||
Next I fashion the J-stringer ends according to the plans. I used the dremel tool for this job. | ||||||
