Lots of little but important tasks

Fuselage

Did a lot today. Sanded down the elevator trim tab support and screwed in the clamp to hold the cable into position.

Next, I removed the stables from the rear cabane and sanded smooth the edges and  leading edge of the cabane where I filled in the access holes.

Made some more filler and filled up the gap at the rear of the cabane.

I then drilled a 1/4" hole in the center of the static port and sanded the edges smooth.

Was sitting in the cockpit and realized that the trim tab adjust lever was a bit hard to reach when it was in the full down position. So, I devised a handle that will make it easy to push down and pull up.

From my experience doing that, I made the handle I will use to move the trim after I get it covered.
