Horizontal Stabilizer
Got back to the shop today, spent most of the time deburring the rest of the HS ribs.
The Emery Cloth does a really nice job of getting into the tighter parts on the ribs are deburring. I am starting with the dremel green Scoth-Brite pads, then going over it with the 320 grit and finally the 600. I was just the 400 and calling it good, but I got worried it was to course. So a little extra time, but it makes me feel better. Then i do all the edges with the Scoth-Brite wheel that it can reach, that thing deburs in no time, so much easier!
Finally finished all the deburring!
Next the plans have you bend angles onto 4 or the pieces, this was easy enough just used the edge seamer and bent slightly.
Now I have to make cradles to build the HS structure in. The plans say to use the shipping container wood, which is nice because I need to cut that up and clear out the space its taking up in the shop anyway.
Final HS jigs.
Next I decided t cut up the rest of the shipping crate to get it out of my space.
I repurposed the 2x4 legs to use as header boards for the raised storage shelf I said I wanted to put in.
Stopped by home depot on the way home and picked up the rest of the wood that I think I need to build my shelf. Ive never done this before, and I intend to put the finished pieces up there so the are stores safe until I need them in final assembly so I really hope google didn't lie to me about how to install header boards!
