Started assembling the FWD lower fuselage section. The cowl stiffener was attached. Firewall spacers were made as per plans and then the cowl attach plates were installed. I used a unibit to enlarge the hole between the gascolator attached holes. Marks were made to keep hole centered. I did a pretty well job but it was difficult in that the flange of the tunnel ribs was in part of the hole and it made it difficult to keep centered.
The rudder support channels were separated and holes dimpled as per plans. The corresponding holes were dimpled on the firewall shelf.
Time: 2.25 hrs.
