Today we wrapped up most of the tasks associated with the bulkhead where the wings attach to the fuselage. The bulkhead is built in two halves. Van's Aircraft calls this "the heart of the fuselage". We finished up the deburring tasks and started riveting the parts together. Again, the pneumatic squeezer saved us a lot of time and energy.
After that we worked on the parts that attach the control column to the bulkhead.
The other half of the fuselage has a number of places to connect panels, etc. These all have three snap bushings drilled. Here's a picture of us fitting the parts to the spar.
And here's another couple of them with the parts attached.
