I thought I saw a post on this previously but I"m not able to find it now. I am wondering what tools people are using to deburr small flange gaps such as on wing ribs.
I recently became rather fond of this Scotch Brite wheel set: https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/topages/scotchbritecutting.php
I've found I am able to put this on a die grinder and deburr both sides of the top of a flange or edge of a skin all in one pass. Once the wheel develops a small groove, you just slide it across any edges that need to be deburred.
The gaps between the flanges though, I'm still using the pencil deburr tool which is a pretty painful process. Anyone have better tools for the flange gaps?
