Endless deburring

Hours: 2.1 | Posted in Ailerons, Flaps

The task that never ends…  deburred & edge-finished all four gap fairings, as well as the #30 holes in the spar and ribs for the flap & aileron brackets.  Still need to deburr the #40 holes in the top skins, and dimple where necessary.  The pieces with the little radii, cutouts and such are the worst to deburr — you end up using several different files, including the set of miniature files, plus scotchbrite pads.  Still not as bad as those square corners of ribs, though.
