DeBurring, and Aileron and Flap Hinges



In the top picture I show the best tool I've purchased from ATS tool.  It's a push/pull debur tool.You can debur the whole lot of the lift strut brackets in less than 10 minutes!!!  Pricy though

The next 2 pics show how I aligned the Flap/Aileron hinges.  I clamped 1 hanger to the rib for span wise alignment and used a square, with a 1/4 inch bolt clamped to it, for fore/aft adjustment.  I also used tape to hold the hinges, temporarily, before pipe clamping.
