Having been involved in building 3 different RV kits, including two non-prepunched kits, deburring is one task that seems to eat up lots of time. Whether it is cleaning up edges or twirling drill bits in holes, SLOW is the only way to describe this process.
When I finally started using the 3M Scotchbrite wheels, that really speed up the edge finishing but there was still all those pesky holes to clean up either with a twist drill or deburring tools. Finally the light went on and I have started to us the smaller Scotchbrite wheels to clean the holes up after drilling. The nightmares of hours spent handling wing skins and ribs has turned into minutes with a quick pass from the Scotchbrite wheel! This has to be the fasted way to clean up a hole, I did a complete wing skin (both sides)in less than 3 minutes!
