Mar 18, 2009     Aft bulkhead fabrication - (2.9 hours)       Category: Fuselage
My previous attempt at fabricating a new aft upper bulkhead (F-810A) was mostly successful, except that the finished product was slightly too wide due to a measuring error on my part. Today, I modified the form block to the correct dimensions, located a scrap of 0.032 aluminum, and fabricated the bulkhead all over again.

This one came out really, really nice. After fluting the tabs, it fit like a glove! Sweet.

All that's left to do is create the stiffener ring around the lightening hole, then drill/cleco the new part in place.
