Finished the F-704 Center Section - 3 hours

Small day today just finishing up the center section and getting it ready to put away. I decided not to grind down the F-704 center section sides for the wiring holes and instead opted to grind down the plastic bushing instead just as the instructions state. They actually turned out extremely well.



I then ran over to home depot and picked up some 2x2 oak blocks to make my center section spacers. I little bit of set up on the table say with some scrap wood and I dialed in the proper width of 1.438"




Once that was done I needed to open up the holes for the spacer bolts in the aft F-704E center section. I found it odd that the back section holes were a smaller size than the forward section.



Done and ready to store until I install on the forward fuselage.
