| OK.. my last entry said we were going to start with the aileron skins next; well I lied. My dad seemed fascinated by the Counter-balance assembley so we proceeded with that. |
 |
| Took the counter-balance plate and found the correct location on the ribs. |
 |
| No pic, but we took two of the plates and clecod them together then we drilled these six holes (where the lead will go) to 3/16". |
 |
| Next we took the (what I call the) "spacer assembly," and drilled it to the correct location on the Plate and Rib. |
 |
| The "correct location" is even with the rib flanges on both sides. |
 |
| After all that was drilled out to 30's and deburred, I cleaned and primed my parts. |
 |
| Riveted all the pieces together. Not a whole lot accomplished today. I had follow-up appts with the surgeon, and a few other iteme to take care of. Next couple days will be spent with the wife and baby... |
