I did a bunch of random junk this weekend, but apparently didn't take too many photos. I bought a handful of plumb bobs and some fishing line, which will be useful for hanging the wings (planned for next weekend). I cleaned up the shop a bit, and leak-tested the second fuel tank – as of tonight, two days later, the balloons I put on it are still inflated. Hooray for proseal.
I also messed around a bit with the control sticks. I had to file a bit off of the stick weldments in order to get them to fit where they're supposed to go. After I took this photo I sealed over the exposed steel with the powdercoat touch-up paint so there won't be any rusting.
I primed and assembled the pushrod that ties the two control sticks together. The wing looks terribly dirty in this photo, but it's just the flash.
After what seemed like an eternity of fiddling with washers in tight spaces, I got the control column installed in the fuselage.
