07/09/2007 - Right hand counterweight trimming

Not much to do at the moment until all the priming comes back on Sunday, but there is one job I can do which is to trim the right hand counterweight.

 

It has to be trimmed so that both elevators are balanced with one another.  A fair chunk has to come off and the plans explain what needs to be done.

 

I used the drill press again to make sure I radiused the corners.  Then cut into the lead to make the shape.

I will add a photo later
