Hi

After a bit of a build break due to work / vacations / sprained wrist, I am ready to start on my fuse kit.

One of the first steps is to trim material from the web and flange of the centre bulkhead. Given that this is not a piece I want to mess up, I am interested in advice on the best way to proceed. I do have a “nibbler” and could “rough out” the areas first and then finish with a file. Are there better ways?

Whatever method I plan to use, I intend to practise on scrap first.

Any comments / advice welcome.

Cheers

Les

Les, this is just from memory, but I have kit 322 and I think my holes were already the right shape and size…….but then again I may be thinking of something else…

The plans call for trimming a semi circle on the top edge of the bulkhead web as well as oval shaped portion (1/2) of the bulkhead flange.

Hi Les,
I'm Kit number 40304 and my holes were the right shape and size as well.  The plans call for you to make sure the holes are the right size.  I think when you get down to it, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that that work is already done

Jeff

I am referring to step # 1 on page 25-3 of the plans. It is not holes I am referring to but two cut outs.

In any event, I don’t plan to do anything until I am certain of a) what is required and b) how to do it properly.

Cheers

Les

Just draw it on there using the dimensions in the plans and use whatever
method appeals to you the best to cut it out. I used a dremel with a
sanding drum. Debur the edges and prime it if you want and you're done.
I don't see how you can mess it up unless you cut outside the line you drew.

I am referring to step # 1 on page 25-3 of the plans. It is not holes
I am referring to but two cut outs.

In any event, I don’t plan to do anything until I am certain of a)
what is required and b) how to do it properly.

Cheers

Hi

I just went to the aviation dept of the local hardware store and picked up a
couple of dremel attachments to do the job.

That sounds like the way to go but I will practise on scrap first. I'm a bit
edgy when it comes to expensive bits of the kit.

Cheers

Les

As been mentioned many times before, you kit number only refers to your empennage kit and has no bearing on what version of wing or fuselage kit you have. That being said, for the SB fuselage, I believe you still have to cut the spar carry through for the landing gear weldment and enlarge the holes for the rudder cables.

See here:

I used a plain old jig saw.
