F3 Cut and Glue

I planed the remaining 4 pieces of spruce tonight and then started trimming pieces to build the F3 bulkhead.
I ran the spruce out to the edges instead of leaving them 12 mm short where they interface with the longerons and the fuselage rib (8 places).  My plan is to notch these areas out with a bandsaw after I laminate the plywood to the faces of the bulkhead.  I believe that this will be more conducive to good glue joints, but I will need to take extreme care not to nick the angled frame members for the upper longeron interface.



Number of hours:  2.3
Total hours: 49.3
