Rudder Stiffener results


Well, after last nights difficulties with the rudder stiffeners, I consulted the good people on the RV-List at matronics.
The response was excellent, balanced between "buy a bandsaw and never look back" and "I was able to do it just fine with the snips using the appropriate left or right handed snips - Appropriately".
So tonight I found that by applying some patience, I was able to trim the stiffeners just fine with the snips and then use the scotchbrite wheel on the bench grinder to de-burr and soften the edges.
Still some more to do, and I need to get some extras from Vans.
