Finished assembling the rudder pedals - 1.5 hours

 I'm really struggling with motivation on the build right now. Can't seem to jump into it with both feet. 

In the spirit of doing something, anything. I decided to rivet the rudder pedals. This one was a difficult decision as I didn't know if I should paint them, anodize them, powder coat them, or leave them. At the local fly-in I recently went to I noticed many folks don't do anything with them. I finally decided to leave them bare reasoning that what ever finish I choose will end up wearing off. I will install skateboard grip tape on them to help with traction. 

If I don't like it....how hard is it to make new ones? Not hard at all.
