 		 		 	 	                  you're invited to view my photos!                                                                                                         [img]http://www1.snapfish.com/getimageforshare/p=412161158460842234/l=210746949/s=57221756/t=ISH/g=73078138/otsc=SYE/otsi=SAIS[/img]

I had an accident this afternoon when on of my RV-10 Quick Build wings slipped off the cradle. The inboard leading edge was dented and the inboard fuel tank panel was slightly deformed. I am looking for advice on how to gracefully recover from this (completely preventable) mistake.

To help prevent the soft aluminum from stretching when doing body work,

never use metal tools for both the hammer and dolly. If using a metal

dolly, use a wood or plastic type hammer; likewise, if using a metal

hammer, use a plastic or wood tool for a dolly.  That will help prevent

the aluminum from stretching.  A hammer made from Delrin is very useful

when working with aluminum.
