Drilling conduit holes in the wings. Had a Unibit drill go stupid on me. The drill twisted the metal and tore 2 cracks on the left and right of this hole.
The rivet holes are there because I decided to put a doubler plate on both sides.
1st I stop drilled the cracks.
Then deburred the rough edges.
Then made a doubler plate on both side of this mess.
Yes the finished side of the rivet is on the inspection plate side.
Question to the experts on this forum. Have I done a good job fixing up this area? It seems stronger than before. I cant image anything else to beef it up.
