More sanding of right wing, designed tyre valve covers
Sanded the bottom of the right wing, aileron, flap, rivet heads with a Dremel and gave it all a general sand
Designed replacement covers for the wheel spat tyre valve access holes since the supplied rubber grommets are almost impossible to fit, very impractical. I mocked up two discs (60.2mm x 3.2mm and 40.4mm x 3.2mm as well as some 40.4mm x 4.5mm), with the idea being I will rivet one smaller disc to the back of one larger disc. The larger one will have two stainless screws to attach to the wheel spat using rivnuts, the smaller one is a centering item to match the access hole diameter (probably not necessary, but I'll give it a go)
