Build log date: Monday, June 23, 2003

• Before priming I use a scotchbright pad and alumiprep to prepare the surface of the aluminum parts.

  

• Now the HS parts are primed.

  

• Match drilling the HS fore spar.

  

• Now that things are all primed the HS411 bearing can be assembled.

  

• Done drilling.

  

• The bearing is now match drilled to the spar with the AN3 bolts.

  

• A shipment from Avery arrived, so I can use my pnuematic squeezer.

  

• I needed to make a jig to measure the 7 degree bend I need to make in HS710/714.

  

• Bending HS710/714 per plans.

  

• I drilled the holes at the end of the bendline slightly outboard of the specified location. I sent email to Van's and they say it is fine.

  

• A close-up photo of my mistake.

  

• HS404 needs to be trimmed to clear HS710/714.

  

• The VS spar reinforcement and brackets are match drilled to the spar.
