Dave's Sonex Builders Log

Using some of the off cut scrap from the angle I made the shoulder belt attach fitting and the rudder stops. These were fairly simple pieces that are essentially flat. I finished both of these except for the holes. I’ve decided to leave most of the drilling for later as the exact location of holes may be influenced during fit up.

I sanded and buffed the angle clips.

I finished the flap drive mounts using 220 aluminum oxide sand paper and then a scotch brite pad. This is becoming pretty standard for all of these fittings. I also marked the holes

I finished the lower motor mounts by sanding the V-groove and then using scotchbrite to clean up all of the cut surfaces. I still need to drill the mounts.

I started rough cutting the left and right hand flap drive mounts. I also did some finish fileing on one of the mount. These are much simpler parts compared to the motor mounts.
