Finished the big bend on the longerons - 4 hours

I managed to work a bit more on getting bends on both the horizontal (to match the plans) and the vertical (to flatten them out). Another couple of hours of "whispering" and things worked out well.



Next step I was ready to drill the F-721B aft decks. I cut some 0.032" strips from scrap as the plans suggest. I used a tedious process of clamping, Marking pilot holes with the palm drill and completing holes with the drill press.




Things look excellent. (I left that last hole fwd undrilled) I just figured I wanted to drill it after I made that sharp downward bend as its so close to that line.
