I don't have a manual mixture cable so I'm able to cut off the big mounting bracket from the fuel selector plate.

-
I used a bit of scrap 0.063" 2024 to fab the spacer that gets installed into the elevator bellcrank.

-
Per plans I've made a handle out of tape to install the left wing duckworks light.

-
I used a tap to add a bit more thread to the wing tiedown holes - so the eyelet can fit close to the skin and be parallel to the airstream.

-
Not too bad - I can put the eyelet away until painting time.

-
The left wing flap reinforcement is now riveted to the skin. I used 4.5 length rivets, the plans call for -4, but that was too short according to the gauge.

-
The flap reinforcement gets pop riveted to the trailing edge.

-
Bonus picture. Nothing to see here. Move along...
