Finishing the tail

I have been working on getting all of the details of the tail kit wrapped up so I can start on the wings. I have been putting on the tips and fiberglassing/filling for several days. This part I really hate but it has to be done. If you want it to look nice and finished you must do a good job of attaching the tips to the ends. I laid up fiberglass over the tips and smoothed it all out on the last RV-6. I am not going that route this time. I attached the tips and am making a nice seam between the metal and the tip. When it gets painted, it will look nice and crisp without having all of the weight, time and material that I had in the last one. I also am fitting the elevators to the horz stab and getting everything rigged up. Once this is all done, I will store it away in the shed and get started on the wings.
