Aug 28, 2020 5 Bulkheads continued Category: Fuselage
It's supposed to rain here tomorrow, so since I'm mostly priming stuff outside I elected to prep all the fuselage bulkheads so that I will have a rainy day project which doesn't require me to prime stuff.

Fabricated various small parts/angles for aft bulkheads, deburred cleaned scuffed etc. all the aft fuselage bulkheads & associate fabricated parts and primed everything.

Lots of prep work! As the bulkheads get smaller, the ears which eventually get skin rivets start getting a smaller radius, which requires more ears in each curve etc. Tons of little nooks and crannies to debur/edge dress. One of the bulkheads (F-712B I think?) didn't have any attempt at finish work on the tabs. They were just rough cut with square corners, so I spent a good bit of time with a nail file getting a good radius on them. There were also multiple places on multiple bulkheads where the ears overlapped during the forming process, so I relieved them as appropriate.
