Well I finally got enough of the insulation and sheet rock done to get my workbench cleared off. So I took this evening to finish up the rudder.

All that was left to do was clean the surfaces up, prime, and rivet. Then where the skin overlaps on the leading edge, you have to drill holes here and rivet this closing the whole thing up.

It took me 26.1 hours to build the rudder... this was a pretty simple piece to build. Now it's time to get busy on the elevator again.
