Post Cure

Post Cure

Ideally the completed foam parts need a "post cure", overnight at 50 deg. I take them to my work at Fokker where they are put in the drying oven of the paint shop.

Horror! I find out that the port flap is bent. I had noticed that the two foam support blocks did not match up prior to layup, but I had thought some shimming would have taken care of it. It hadn't

Neville Eyre came up with a solution- sand down the top of the flap and lay up new uni. Then at the filling stage straighten out the bottom with filler. At least I found out that accidentally sanding through the glass is not easy. In fact doing it on purpose is bl...y hard work!

Clecoed in. I have something with clecos. They look very professional. I can look at them for ages.

Bonding in the trim weight boxes. Good use for the trim weight.
