Default RE: Byron Wedell Williams Racer Build

Finished the tail flying wires. Placed the fuse back on the jig and measured the horizontal stab distance to the bench top. Kept measuring with the addition of each finished wire to be sure I didn't move it off line. The Stainless Steel bolt was measured and cut to length. A nylon lock nut is used to keep it secure. The Anchoring plates needed a 35deg bend to line them up with the clevises which were bent as well. The 4-40 rods were rough cut then marked cut and soldered to the clevis. Took some time as soldering isn't my best skill [X(] After the top was done the bottom was done the same way. The anchoring plate goes on top of the tailwheel mount to keep to plate and screws from chaffing the fiberglass. The final results look great and was well worth the effort. If you build this kit you have to have flying wires to make it look right.
