I haven't been very good at updating here.  Work has been very busy, and my wife has had a bout with Kidney Stones.  I have managed to get some time in here and there.

My Father in Law came over to help me with the rudder assembly.  I had prepped by using Tim Olson's procedure using Steel angle iron as a back plate.  I drilled the angle and used it to hold the trailing edge straight while we glued the trailing edge together.  This is a pretty busy session as you need to proseal half of the trailing edge, then assemble the stiffeners to the shear clips.  It takes lots of hands and having some help is a plus.

With all that done the rudder spar goes on the assembly and gets riveted in place.  Most of the rivets can be squeezed, but there are a couple that need to be bucked, and it is pretty tight to get your hand to them.

I am holding out on finishing the attachment of the counterweight until I get a torque wrench to properly seat them.
