Strengthening the Rudder skins
 
  
 

 

 

 

20/09/2007 - Back to the rudder

I decided to continue with the rudder as I was waiting for the parts on the horizontal stabiliser to be primed.  Previously I could not continue with the rudder until I had riveted on the strengtheners and to do that they had to be primed.

This is a back riveting process and brought back memories of doing the practise kits so this was not new to me so I bashed through them quit quickly.

 

Then the next bit was the bit I could not do properly until the strengthens were in place which is to make 100% sure everything fits together just right.

 

It did not take long to put together, and the rudder looks good.  Well to my eyes anyway !
