Empennage · Work package 11 EMP Attachment · 4h 23m · Plans: Page 4-6, Section 11

Since I am still missing the Elevator Horn, I went ahead and made some of the smaller fittings and the pushrod assembly. For the internal pushrod, I thinned my usual primer and, after plugging one end, sloshed it around inside to get everything coated. I also found a 3D-printed jig that makes drilling the six holes on each end of the pushrod a breeze. It worked like a charm! The sprinkles on my mask are from one time when I tried to close the paint can while there was still paint on the rim. Now my shop has fancy grey accent dots on the walls and roof.
