I only had a couple of hours to work today, so I tackled the front fuel tank braces. These are mounted to the fuselage at the front of the wings, which are actually the fuel tanks. I made up the first set of brackets, but I wasn't satisfied with them. I'll make a new set later. Don't worry, I won't forget! If I do, I'm sure I'll get several email reminding me!

On the outside of the fuselage, I drilled one hole for an AN3 bolt and used it as the starting place for the bracket. I drew a vertical line so I could properly center the bottom hole using the drilled bracket as a guide. I drilled the bottom holes. That's it. The brackets are drilled in place. Now I will remove them and make new spacers and internal brackets because the first set was a little out of proportion. O. K., a LOT out of proportion!
