I know I said that I was finished w/ the cowl, and I was,,,, but..... I needed to UV prime the oil door and final attach the Cam Loc's |
|
(I wanted the metal washers to be flush with the surface and therefore recessed into the oir door, and that little detail added |
|
several hours of filling and sanding, etc. Then I needed to (but really didn't want to) reattach the cowl and see/reassure myself |
|
that everything still fits properly. That's another hou or two, boy putting this cowl on and off is not a one person job and it takes |
|
much longer than I like. I have an idea about installing some alum brake line inside the cockpit that mich make the insertion of |
|
the horizontal hinge pins easier. I also spent 30-45 mins on the scotchbrite wheel further tapering the upper right cowl hinge pin, |
|
it goes in better now, especially with a little lube, but it's still VERY tight. I think I'll work on both some more. with everythign fit |
|
together, there are a couple of areas thet need some detailing, so I've made notes of those and put them on the 'To Do" list. |
