Skin, rearrange shop, tank holder
Sandi and I bent the 2nd fuel tank skin tonight. Wow what a relief to finish those. I was in a complete rut about it. I have a 2nd wind and am ready to tackle the tanks.
Taking skin out of bender.
After bending the skin I needed to rearrange the shop a little. After that I cleaned off the 'wax' from the skins.
Ended the night building the tank cradles. Since my skin is long, I made eight of them.
Next stop... installing the ribs and final drilling.
(Time: 3.5 hours)
