Fuselage Clips

 Stinson used a lot of these clips on the fuselage. Someone posted this picture of all of them with part numbers.

Kydex interior

 More work on the rear panels with Kydex. I had to make some paper patterns and then cut the Kydex. I used 1" 90 degree aluminum angle with #8 rivnuts to secure the Kydex. 

The angles are secured to the fuselage with adel clamps.

Gear strut teardown

 Took the gear struts apart. Messy job and important to keep the pins.
