My Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 Rebuild Diary 2007.

02/03-October-2007. Made & fitted HS mounting cover, and last rivet tape. Also fitted elevator leading edge tape.

I have also created a HELP ME page on this site for areas/parts etc that I don't know what fits. Please have a look especially if you have a Great Lakes 2T-1A-2.
Here is this evenings progress:


The bolts to mount the H/S are under the fabric, so a cover needs to be fitted.
This part is guled to the fabric. The inside of the fabric is cut out after painting. I re-made this part as the original had multiple holes from a previous recover where the cover had been refitted.
Fabric over the top.
Applying leading edge tape to the elevator - my last tape for this part.
This turned out to be quite difficult - I end up calling fellow builder David (thanks David) for advise as it would not stay in place as you can see from this picture.
Once the inspection cover had dried I put the inner tape on.
