Elevator – Part 1

Beginning to assemble the elevators.  The first few steps are cutting and cleaning up a number of the ribs and other small parts.  I found my belt sander to be perfect for getting the separated rib parts down to the correct size.  This did leave a bit of a burr that was then cleaned up on the ScotchBrite wheel.  I assembled the ribs and match drilled them.  I also cut and cleaned up the shear clips as well as assemble the Elevator tip rib assemblies.

Honestly this is what I consider the “fun stuff”.  Take basic materials and cut, assemble, match drill, and begin to put the parts together.
