I have had a fun day today, working on the plane… Richard and I worked on the longerons again. These are the pieces of angle that go the length of the plane, and keep it dimensionally stable. And I must say that they are a pain to deal with. They need to be bent into shape. And the bending experience is an interesting one.

Building an aeroplane is generally an exercise in careful work. Even when you need to use force to do something, like using a rivet gun, it is generally carefully applied. Which is why placing a longeron in a vice, and hitting it with a rubber mallet with all ones might is rather strange. Since I tended to be the one holding the metal stable, I needed to make sure that I stayed out to the way… Well out of the way. Thankfully this time I did not get hit…

Right now the Harry Potter movie is on TV… I have it on DVD, but it is cute to watch on TV for some reason too… Anyway I think that I have mentioned this before but I totally love the Weasleys clock… It gives an indication of where every one is… I am thinking of adding this to my WWW site… Since I have the GPS in my car I have the data for something like that. Anyway time to get going…
