More De-Burring

Had to delay the initial setup of the wing spar and ribs.   When going through my parts I noticed that the de-burring needed some touch ups.  So I spent a couple of hours refining the de-burring that I initially did.  I used a green 3M Pad to smooth out the edges of all ribs - nose and main.


These are the tools I use for final preparation of the parts.

Hammer for banging angles to 90 degrees
Fluting Plier to straighten parts after whacking them to 90 degrees
Deburring tool for edges and holes
Sheet Metal Seam tool for bending and adjusting flanges
and a green 3M pad for final smoothing

I think progress is being made.  I have a LOT of parts - need to start putting them together now!

Thanks for checking in - 

Greg.
