Been a bit since I added to this log. Have been doing the varnish of the mounts that I made for the left wing and checking (for the third time) the set up of the wings when mounted to the fuselage. The directions say to check it again before you set in the fuel tanks so I did. Also fabricated the fuel sight gauge plate for the left wing and primed it.
Today I did the sloshing (cleaning out) of the fuel tanks. You plug all the holes with NPT plugs and then seal the fuel filler so you can slosh around the mixture of gas and acetone. Sealing of the fuel filler is apparently the hard part. I modified the top of a spray paint can so that the inside section went into the tank and the outside was trimmed short enough to then wrap it with electrical tape to seal it. Also note the two holes in the top. That mixture of acetone and gas builds up quite the pressure. When you slosh over the filler, you just put your finger over the two hole. When sloshing the rest of it you release your fingers and you can hear the pressure coming out the holes. The one pic is of a helper who showed up near the end of the festivities.
