Aug 22, 2021     Step #27 - #29 Install Strakes - (6 hours)       Category: Final (X)
The RH Strakes fit pretty well and did not require much sanding and trimming. The LH Strakes needed a lot of sanding and trimming to get them flush against the fuselage and HS. After fussing with them yesterday and today I was finally happy with the fit so I fiberglasses them together. They need to cure for 24 hours before I install them. Sanding the Gelcoat off the fuselage in the meantime.

I'm getting better at managing the resin time and was able to apply 3 strips with 100grams of resin. I mixed a 50gram batch to fhinish off the last fiberglass strip and cleaned everything up.
