These pictures are actually carried over from last night. Here's the mess of gloves and paper towels produced by two full days of proseal hell. |

Here are the cups from something like 15 batches of proseal. Gah. |

After work today, I stopped over at Bob Leffler's house. Bob was nice enough to supply me with a few oops rivets so I could try one last time to get that rivet from hell to look better. It actually worked out OK. The shop head isn't great, but it'll hold. I also added extra proseal around the flange to protect against leaks. |

I wanted to get some more work done, but was tired of the proseal, so I decided to work on the fuel return fittings. My return lines are just going to dump directly into the inboard most bay. I bought a couple bulkhead fittings for this to modify, but needed a way of holding them square so I could cut them off after the thickness of the nut and washer. I decided to drill a hole in this bar... |

So I could use it as a jig for sawing the end of the fitting off. |

It worked really well...some cutting, sanding, and filing later, this is what I ended up with. |

The fitting is almost flush with the nut now. |

Just some miscellaneous prep here...scuffed all the fitting washers and cleaned these parts in MEK. Done for the night, I think. |
