Aft Fuse Assembly

Working along slow. Over the last several days the Aft Fuselage has come together. The first task was to make a level surface. This garage is terrible. It is a wonder people don't fall down as the floor is so uneven. Check out all the shims to get this right!!!



Next the bottom skin is laid out with the middle bulkheads.




Now the sides, front and rear bulkheads are clecoed.




Now the 4 length wise stiffeners are shaped on each end.



Tail cone is assembled and attached.



Now that all pieces of the rear fuse are attached, all holes are drilled.




With that finished it all comes apart in order to debur all holes and edges. Then dimple before priming and riveting.


Will keep you posted.
