It's been a while since I've been able to get into the garage and get much work done. I'm at a bit of a stopping point on riveting the fuselage (waiting for my riveting partner to return from a trip), but I decided to go chip away at some odds and ends. I pulled out the rudder/brake pedals. I've been waffling on whether or not I should prime/paint the pedals. I decided to just do a quick rattle can prime of the angle pieces and back sides of the pedals where things mate together, but left the face of the pedals bare aluminum. I figure anything on the pedals will rub off with use anyway.
The pedals went together pretty easily. I started to work on bolting them in place on the bars, but it was obvious pretty quick that things weren't going to line up very well and I'd have to fiddle with it a lot. My mental energy isn't up to that task today though, so maybe tomorrow.
