Not much has been accomplished since last time other than filing with the Walgreens emery boards.
Having removed all of the panels and filing down the tabs with the metal file there were still some rough areas that had little pieces of "slag" aluminum left over from the laser cutting process. I collected all the pieces and took them outside to work on them in the back yard while the boys jumped on the trampoline. My oldest son decided building was more fun so I showed him how to file down the rough spots and held the panel while he filed them.
We finished the majority of the panels with the exception of a few of the smaller ones. As these are thin aluminum I thought it best to do these another evening after bed time as it is easy to bend the aluminum and warp it if you exert too much force. As you can see from the tool bench the majority of the panels with the exception of the ones at the bottom right are now complete.
Unfortunately that is all we have to update for now. Tomorrow I have to make a stop at the Post Office as some parts that we have ordered will be arriving.
