4.5 Hours -
Four and a half hours of dimpling and deburring today and I’m still not done with the rudder final prep. The skins are done, but there are a few holes on the ribs that I can’t dimple yet. When my order from onlinemetals.com arrives, I’ll make a thin bucking bar that will also have #30 and #40 female dimple dies drilled into it. Using these female dies, I’ll be able to dimple the aft few holes on the tip and bottom ribs.
