Fuselage Tube

Home

Fuselage tube in the cage and marking where the hole is to drilled for the bolt that holds the tube at the aft part of the cage.
Thinking maybe a jet?

The tube is placed in a fixture on the table and we drilled all the holes for the H brace with a drill press.

The hole for the H brace was drilled first with a unibit, so it would come out nice and round.

Slick is concerned that the hole is drilled in the right place.
Slick had to move in for a closer look.
Slick spots the bolt through the fuselage tube and the H brace.
Tim is drilling some of the rivet holes through the fuselage tube and the H tube. ( He has to hold his tongue just right or Slick won't let him do anything anymore.)

If you look in the fuselage tube you can see the H brace tube.

You can see by this shot the H brace doesn't have any space between it and the fuselage tube.

The fuselage tube in the cage!
