When I got home from work I cleaned and polished the back
rivet plate. I'm very pleased how nice it turned out. I was careful to grind down the corners so
that it did not gouge the aluminum when it is pulled over top.
I went for lunch and then took trip over to home depot to pick up some sandpaper
and a 220V extension cord. When I got home I had a big surprise. The Empennage
kit arrive from Vans!! But the joy was short lived. When I opened the box and
looked at the inventory sheet...They had sent me an RV8 kit and not the RV7 kit
:( After a quick phone call Vans told me they would ship out the right kit and
contact FedEx to pick up the RV8 kit.
