Panel support angles & project visits
Spent the morning finishing the other half of the panel support angle... cutting and filing.. I think I spent at least 4 hours making this single part.
On a seperate topic.. my seat backs were hitting the rollbar. I started to replace the hinge on the bottom of the seat back so I could shift it inboard... but then decided to swap seatbacks to see if that made a difference. I had them labeled as pilot/pass. but at some point switched them. Switching them back made them fit perfect!
About that time, Lonnie, a future RV builder came out for a visit... and he brought a gift! He's an instructor at an A&P school in KC... he brought a hard copy of the AC43.13 book! Will be nice reference material. Thanks Lonnie!
So back to work on the panel... I started drilling the support angle to the panel when our EAA chapter VP showed up with a guest in tow. He wanted to show 'Red' my project... so we chatted for awhile.
Finished drilling the support angle to the panel and also made the two small angles and drilled them.
(Time: 5 hrs)
