It's getting closer to completing the Empennage kit. Section 10 is the rear fuselage and below are the rear bulkheads that attach to the Vertical stabiliser.
Deburring first. Only the left hole in the photo below has been deburred and it shows the sharp edges created when punching the holes in the Philippines.
All these are done...
Ahhhhhh....
This is one of the double-edged deburring tools which is very handy when access is restricted and you can only get to one side of the sheet metal.
This shows a close-up of the sprung-loaded cutting edge that depresses when you put a measured amount of pressure through the hole. The spring force can be adjusted to control the amount of deburring.
This is normally only a 5-piece kit, but I ended up buying a separate 3/16" deburring tool for some reason so I thought I'd make a place for it in the box with the others.
