Jan 26, 2021 4 Started fwd fuselage disassembly Category: Fuselage
It never got above freezing today, so priming outside was out. Threw together a temporary paint booth out of cardboard thats good enough for sub structure and rattle can primer.

Deburred and primed baggage compartment bulkheads and stringers, Then countersunk and primed the fwd floor stiffeners.

I'm basically taking the fwd fuselage apart in reverse order of how it went together. My garage isn't heated, so it's a huge hassle to get it heated up with a shop heater, then wear a respirator while priming. But looking at the weather forecast for this week, I think I'll likely continue like this for the next day or two.

It's supposed to be up in the 50s here on Friday, so I'll hopefully be in a position to prime the rivet lines on the skins outside, since they obviously won't fit in my awesome paint booth and I don't really want to build anything better just for that.
