Mar 30, 2019     Rudder - Section 7       Category: Empennage
Finishing the rudder. Used angle aluminum, with holes drilled for clecos, as a jig to help keep the trailing edge straight while the adhesive sets up. I put a thin layer of silicone paste to keep the jib from sticking to the skin if any adhesive got out. Very happy how the trailing edge worked out. Rolling the leading edge was accomplished with two different diameter PVC pipes to get the roll right. The larger pipe didn't get the edge rolled enough to prevent pillowing between rivets.
