I sanded down the filler I applied yesterday.
As expected, there are some low spots, so I’ll need another coat or two, but the overall shape is getting very close.
I mixed up another coat and squeegeed it on.
The cowl has these covers over the holes to access the side hinge pins. I decided to fasten the hinge pins to the covers, so I ground a groove in the back of the cover and mixed up some JB Weld and glued them together. You can see the back side of the cover in the mirror above the cover.
I’ve had these vinyl letters for quite a while, but I finally took a few minutes and put them on the vertical stabilizer. There is another one on the other side.
In preparation for my imminent move to the airport, I went through all of my tools and pulled out everything that needed to go to the hangar. I also picked up a bunch of new tools (wrenches, socket set, screwdrivers, etc.).
I also put all of my metal working tools in a tool bag since I shouldn’t need any of them anymore. This bag is ridiculously heavy (70-80 lbs at least).
The second coat of filler I applied this morning has cured, so I sanded it down most of the way. The middle section is nearly perfect, but the sides still need some work.
