It was a pretty quiet and small day. I managed to finish match drilling the #30 holes on the F-704A/B/C/D pieces on the drill press. Also countersunk the F-704G vertical bars. Then family came over so I couldn’t hide in the garage.
One item that was bugging me was that when fitting the close tolerance bolts, one side of the section was a bit more troublesome and some of the anodizing has rubbed off inside the hole. The other sets did not look like this one. Due to the critical nature of this area, I was concerned that this could be an issue.
I had emailed Vans, and they indicated that rubbing off the anodizing was inevitable due to how tight those bolts are, but not to worry. Apply some grease to the area on final assembly and that will protect the finish.
