Prep’ing the firewall and the aft fuse - 3 hours

 Managed to get to work on preparing the firewall. The powder coated weldments have taken a little abuse with the fitting of the forward fuse parts. So I de-burred, cleaned and primed the outward faces of the weldments.


 Next I started in on the aft fuse. I deburred all the new holes and cleaned them up. I then dimpled all the holes along the longeron and the new line of rivets where the center section attaches at bulkhead F-706. After dimpling I cleaned the area and primed both the inside face and the outside face.
