Project: BuckRV-8     -     Entry

May 11, 2007 1.6 Rear control column hanger and spacers Category: Fuselage
Finished fabricating the F-837 rear control column hanger and the F-838 spacers. I spent a lot of time filing, grinding with the Dremel tool, hand-sanding, and polishing the hanger angle. It is without doubt the finest piece of work I've done so far on this airplane. Now I'll prime it, paint it, and bolt it in place under the floor, where no one will ever see it. Oh well...

I also test-fit the WD-807 control column to the fuselage. This is the "Tetris" of RV building, because it only goes in one way. It took a few minutes of twisting, turning and head-scratching to get the thing to fit through the hole in the spar.
