Rolled Front Edges and Counterbalance Weights Cut

Published by olanandkate on

I got a tiny bit of time to get the front edge of the elevators rolled and then riveted. I also got the change to cut the basic shape of the counterbalance weights. I still need to get them smoothed out some and grind off just a tiny bit more. The band saw worked pretty good but the metal cutting band kept getting gummed up with the lead from the weight. I’d have to stop and pick it off before I could keep cutting. Other than that it went pretty good and is looking nice!

Both elevators done!
Rough cut for the weights. I don’t like how these weights are all wrinkled
