Now the bearing has dried I just need put the assembly back together, clamp it and set my first rivets. That’s the rear spar assembly all complete.
Category: Horizontal Stabilizer
The next part to prepare & assemble is the rear hinge brackets HS-411 assembly. The bearing needs priming so I will have to move on to the front spar assembly while I wait for it to dry after priming. Don’t worry, I spotted the bracket was on the wrong side just after I took this photo! 55 mins.
I was off to a slower start than I was expecting today mainly because I am still getting used to the tools and equipment. Also I’m finding reading the plans challenging as the wording takes some getting used to.
The obligatory before and after of the very first part.

And the first assembly…
