I knocked out a whole lot today and when I began to think about what I did I thought I spent several days on this. I started out by making a jig to draw the centerline on the stiffeners.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next after marking up the stiffeners, I bent the longerons per the plans, this was alot easier then I’ve read about. Maybe I just got lucky.<\/p>\n

Next the plans call for some 38″ saw horses to hold the skin up. I elected to use my work benches and some stuff around the shop. I started by placing the bottom skin upside down between 2 tables and install 2 of the bulkheads and the stiffeners.<\/p>\n

After drilling the stiffeners I flipped the tailcone over and began installing the aft most bulkheads and the a small skin.<\/p>\n

Next I made sure that there was no twist in the tail cone by using a digital level<\/p>\n

I did little bit more odds and ends, but nothing major. The biggest thing I can recall was installing the longerons but I did not go as far as drilling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
