Left Wing - Fuel Tank (9)

Back at it!  My goal for today was to spend a few hours getting the left tank prepped and ready to be cleaned and dimpled.  I pulled everything apart and started the long process of deburring all of the holes and edges in the skins, ribs, baffle, z-brackets, stiffeners, etc. 


After everything was deburred, then any surface that will get proseal on it during assembly had to be scuffed.  Next I will dimple the skin and other parts, then after cleaning everything with acetone they'll be ready for assembly and sealing.
