tonight I did some yard work after going for a row with Leah. So we got started in the garage late. Leah did some organizing to make room for 373Y while I worked on drawing out the parts that will make up the tailwheel spring attachment. I'm copying what Dean Gradwell used on 72DG which is a stack that goes something like this:
.063" 4130 sheet
1/2" Spruce
1/4" Steel tailwheel bracket
With 2 1/4" bolts going through and a locking nutplate on the 4130 sheet.
I did get the pieces cut to finish the stringer work but by the time I was finished with that it was getting late so I'll have to get those scarfed in later in the week. Everything is coming together nicely on this tail section. A few more days of progress and it'll be done!
