Wings :: Tanks
Drilled tank drains, more deburring
2.5 Hours

Tonight was another quick and easy night. I fitted the tank drains. In order to get the drain lined up with the hole in the skin, I jammed a Sharpie into the drain through the skin and it fit pretty much perfectly! Clamp in place and then drill and cleco away. Here it is clamped in place.

It's centered with the Sharpie.

Then it was cake to drill the holes in the skin.

I then proceeded to make two vent line clip. This holds the aluminum tube up at the highest part of the tank. I just bent them out of some scrap I had. Here it is clecoed to the fuel cap flange.

After finishing up the vent clips, I deburred the inside of the ribs and then the inside of one of the skins.
