Tanks are done - no leaks!!
Posted: Tue Nov 07, 2006 1:12 pm
Tested them last night and today ... with the manometer and bike pump, no leaks on either tank!!!!
I did have a small leak on the R tank near the nose attach bracket last week when I informally tested (blew in the tube) ... gooped proseal over that and now both are good to go!
It is rewarding to have this done ... not nearly as bad as I had thought, and there is something satisfying about doing it myself.
Now I just need a bucker for the top skins and the wings are done (flaps and ailerons already finished...)
