Managed to put in a decent evening on the project. I needed to proseal the conduit in the wing ribs. This will help ensure that the ribs don't cut into the plastic conduit as suggested by the manual. The only thing I didn't really think about was how to do it so I had a nice job of it. I ended up using a popsicle stick to put a dab of proseal around the conduit where it meets the rib (both side of the rib) and then I used my finger to spread it around and push it in the voids. Not the most attractive but effective.
Once that was done, I turned my attention to the ailerons as I didn't want to disturb the proseal.
I began to match drill the aileron structure. Straight forward. The fun began with drilling the galvanized counterweight pipe. Its at an angle and being steel. It take some time to drill. I drilled the holes to #40. Now the compressor is warmed up, I better give up for the night so as to not introduce condensation into the line.
