Section 27 Firewall

RV14 Build November 19-22

Firewall

The 22nd is officially 1 year since the kit arrived!! It feels longer and I can't believe how much I have gotten done!

The firewall have a decent amount of small parts but nothing major really. Countersinking, prep for prime, prime, and rivet.




Dimpling the firewalls

Back riveting the structure to the firewall.


Building the exhaust channel. I made a mistake hear and riveted without al the pieces. The rivets looked too long, that should have been a red fag, someday ill learn to listen to those.


Firewall 14 Hours
