| Cleaned up main build room |
On Saturday, we spent several hours cleaning and organizing the shop and it really paid off. We now have things in good shape for starting our major build tasks, and just a few minutes of cleanup before each work day should keep things in good shape.
We also did some more prep work for the wing build, including cleaning off the aluminum dummy spars in preparation for gluing, and chamfering the edges so the ribs can slip on easily, as well as making a new set of brackets for a slightly larger diameter (7/8") tool for the leading edge bend, as we try and dial in the radius that works best given the springback and melting characteristics of the Depron.
