Started to work on getting ready to install the landing gear so we can remove the fuse from the rotisserie and prep for the finish kit to arrive and get the engine mount on. This included installing the 15+ bolts and related washers/nuts on each each side. Should be able to mount the gear next time.

The stiffeners required for SL-00014 were laid out, drilled and dimpled. I’ll prime the stiffeners and install next time.

The right side before dimpling the last two holes. The bottom two need the close quarter dimple die.

Deburred, dimpled and added some light primer on the bottom of the front top skin. I’ll smooth the primer out and paint it the same as the interior color.
