Port side. Red highlighted area shows area with little reinforcement on inside. This is before I did the belly layup per the manual.

Rib one after cure of 420 and peel ply removed. Think we used 112g of 420 here due to the odd angle.

Here is a shot of the working angle. This was so much better than leaning over the edge. Kim's idea. Notice the heater behind Kim, this was key to keeping the temps even though the temps outside were in the 40's.

The gell coat really gums up the sand paper. Still a bit more to remove.

Layup Port side complete with peel ply. Notice the glad wrap to keep air from getting under the peel ply. 420 = 46g, aeropoxy ~ 200g

Ensure you have a good key. I used the drill press to create the dimples. These will be filled with 420 and flox when doing the glass layups.

I took cardboard and bent it around the socket and overlapped per the manual. Then took this cardboard and made a new template for cutouts. This made the layups go really quick.

More of the same. I was going to cut the carpet and form it to the ribs and staple it in place but decided that was just a time vampire and pointless since the airframe is holding it in place.

Started to make the axle jig. Used a simple setup of first taking large flat blocks of wood and caulking it to the floor somewhere over FS70. Then that allows me to fix the aluminum angle with a single screw once in its final position.
