And now back to our regularly scheduled updates. Lots of photos on this one.
I had already taped down the template. So next I center punched and confirmed with the callipers.
Then drilled. Look!! No chips!!
Then I spent 15 minutes screwing it in as the ion arm slowly sucked towards the shell.
And voilà!! C'est Magnifique!!
(Still need to clean off my table...)
You can see the gap here but when there is no paper it is hardly noticeable. Even less I'm sure when I get to paint.
And just for fun with the cap on.
I think the PPD will be next before I go with the booster tube. My internet is down in the neighbourhood so I'm limited to my phone only. (First world problems...) so I'll see what I can find for install tips. I've see metal dowels (Letmebleed's thread I believe) but I don't see why it couldn't just be screwed on.
