Over a few days I cleaned up the top spar cap again blending the edges into the wing surface. There seems to be one or two at most strand bundles that need cleaning up with the caps. The rest just had a surface cleanup to blend the joggles where plies were stacked.

Another area was the trailing edge that took nearly a full day. This has a triangle shaped piece of foam removed and then VERY careful sanding down to the peel ply which is removed to reveal nice clean glass for a glass to glass bond at this trailing edge. The wing foam has to blend down to nothing and it is worth a lot of care.

Next was the rudder conduit. I’m doing the internal bellhorns so this is in a slightly different place to plans. Once drawn on the wing my very old dremel made a nice slot. This was a line from 4.8″ down from the cap on the FC1 block to .7″ above the edge of the aileron position. Then down to the lowest point I can go at the tip with the conduit still inside the wing. This worked out at 1.25″ from the trailing edge or about 1/2″ up from the bare glass area.
