Metal working problems

Fuselage

Took off the empennage fairing after marking it where it needed to be trimmed to fit snugly to the tail. Tidied up the antenna cable in the cabin with zip-ties that have screw hole connections on them. Removed the radio holder because I discovered that I couldn't press zero because a tab was in the place. Cut it off and discovered that the function buttons were also covered making it impossible to use. I'll need to abandon this attempt and try another holder possibly one made from aluminum but unsure how yet. I’m not really good at metal working and it’s showing in the amount of effort needed to get these parts fit right.
