Painting and fuselage vents

I layed out the small handful of parts to paint and scuffed them before painting them.

I also laced the static line to the rib after installing it.

In other distractions, I needed to pull the radiator out of my truck.

Peter helped me cleco the top skin on. I will need to recruit someone to help river this, next time I have a block of time to work on it.

All ready to go.

After my paint cured, I put the instrument panel parts together,

Next up is time to work on the top skin.
