17 Nov 07 - Edge Finished Rudder Skin / Prekoted - 2.0 Hours

I was suprised by how much time it took to edge finish the rudder skin. The rudder skin has lots of nooks and crannies that have to be edge finished, so it took quite a while longer than the other skins have.

After that was complete, I cleaned the stiffeners and skin with a soapy Scotchbrite pad and then used the Prekote to get them ready for priming. I thought I would be able to prime today, but the days are getting short and I need to get started earlier.
