Today was one of those days that you want to do something on the plane but don't actually have a plan what to do next. Most of the time I have tons of things preplanned but now and then it happens.

I took out my newly drilled elevator horns (after welding and redrilling) and deburred them.

The hole looks really nice and clean after deburring. Just what you want on a control surface part.

As part of the work today, I scuffed, degreased and put some new white paint over the exposed part using a rattle can.

Worked also on the other wing inner ribs, installing nutplates.

Finally got the two triangular parts out of the stock which will reinforce the back of the wingtip and deburred and cleaned the edges?
