Tailcone drilling

Getting the skins to line up exactly perfect took a bit of effort, but I believe they are pretty darn close.  Drilling through 1/8” of angle aluminum is definitely tougher than the thinner aluminum sheet I’ve been getting accustom to drilling.  After getting about a 1/3 of the way through the left side, I decided to skip ahead a bit and go back to cutting angle (instead of drilling it).  Again the plans go into some pretty precise detail on the measurements.  Thankfully, this is starting to get easier now.
