These skins are long but a lot of them can be done alone. The tar for the tank sealant is once again a pain in the butt to deal with. It's very annoying to set these rivets I have noticed on several occasions the wrong rivet sizes are called out. I also have noticed absolute errors in the plans. For example they tell you to countersink a part that is supposed to be dimpled and the party below it requires to be countersunk to receive this dimple. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me but then I realized that the plans are simply wrong. I checked my resources (other builders logs) and confirmed that the plans are just “mistaken”. It's quite annoying but I think that since these mistakes are so obvious that nobody is reporting them and they just keep them in there. At any rate the fuselage is almost complete. The next section we will connect the empennage to the fuselage. Before I do this though I will have to remove all the tail feathers. There are quite a few fabricated parts in this section. It's quite rewarding. It feels very good to watch pieces you make line up perfectly (almost as perfectly as the machined parts from Van's). Most of the parts you fabricate are not incredibly crucial in terms of precision, but it's fun to try and be perfect anyway and be rewarded by pieces that look like they came out of a factory. Tomorrow we will completely finish this section and prepare for the empennage attach.
