Hi all, I am working on the J channel stiffeners for the tail cone. After cutting them all to the proper size the plans have you draw a rivet line down the center. I removed 5/16" of material from a length of J channel scrap to use as a template sliding it along the J channel stiffeners and marking the centerline. That's when i noticed that one of my stiffeners tappers off 1/8" at the end. Now I did make a couple of passes with my deburring wheel but I just can't see how I removed that much material. I am wondering if the part could have been defective? I rechecked them all and found a second J channel that is slightly wider than the others. Has anyone else seen this? I am concerned about edge distance on the one that tapers off and will most likely order a new J channel. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience....
