Met my work hour goal for another week.

Continued work on fuel and brake lines. Considered assembly order including access to wing spar bolts and how to determine final location of wing fuel fittings.

Confirmed the choice of locating the break in the fuel lines between the two brackets on the front of the main spar center section. Fabricated a piece of tubing with a fitting on the valve and a loose end near the break. Worked on fabricating the tubing from the valve to the right wing tank. Realized I would need to change the routing so the fuel lines would be routed on top, brake lines in the middle and wires on the bottom. Fabricated rough examples of tubing from wing tanks to the break and thought about the order for determining final length and flaring the ends of the tubing. Reconsidered the amount of work I was delaying to final assembly at the hangar and the risks of leaks due to flaring tubing in place and final fit of all the tubes.

Studied run of brake line tubing and how to fabricate them and the installation order. The brake lines can block access to some of the wing spar bolts. These are the easiest to form so they should be run last.

Decided to reconsider use of TS Flightlines hose kits and created list of questions for Tom. I know I could make the hard lines work, but I am not enjoying it and my lines will take a lot more time and have a higher risk of leaks. Also future maintenance will be more likely to be required and be more difficult. Seems like a good place to trade dollars for time and quality.
