Start of fuselage (firewall)

Today was a mix of activities.  While I searched out the parts for the firewall and manufactured a few parts.  Darren finished machine countersinking the trailing edges for the ailerons and flaps.  Once that was done we started on the first piece of the fuselage kit -- the firewall.  It was necessary to manufacture a few attach angles, stiffners and reinforcement plates but now that we've done this before it was old hat.  Afterwards we started clecoing the parts to the firewall and match-drilled the main components.
