Page 10-02 Build Time: 182 hrs

Still working on the tail cone. I have all the skins ready for scuff and prime. They've been fitted I used the teflon roller tool to break the edges. I'll finish the frames this weekend and the rear bulkhead will get me back to fab and ready for primer. February was a slow month as the annual is due on the Cessna and that took a couple weekends to iron out the squawks and complete. 

The parts in the foreground are done, the ones at the other end are all that's left to deburr. I'm making good use of the right angle die grinder and accessories. I would recommend this as the first purchase for deburring but all of the tools see a fair amount of use. 



This is the result of too much money and not enough time. But it makes getting through deburring much faster. I started out with just the files and the edge tool. Those rarely get used now. I'm still using the small files around the small areas on the edges. If you can see it, there's a drill bit meant for a CNC machine that I use for deburring drilled holes. It works much better than the deburr tool I bought (I use that to finish off counter sinks now) and then nice thing about this bit is it stays sharp and the shank is smooth. Using a bit with it's flutes is pretty hard on the fingers.
