Last monday I primed the baggage area panels at work, but it wasn’t until today I made it back to the garage to install them.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I started out by dimpling the nutplate rivet holes on the\u00a0\u00a0F-750 Aft Baggage Covers.

I had to dimple the nutplates for these as well..

Nice..! \ud83d\ude00

Fast forward a few hours, the baggage floors are installed. I dimpled the rivet holes on the floor aft flanges and F-706 bulkhead\u00a0as well.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next I dug out the aft\u00a0baggage bulkheads.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When test fitting the lower bulkhead, I noticed I had installed round head rivets instead of flush rivets in the\u00a0\u00a0F-750 Covers. Thats a no go… they interfere with the aft bulkhead. I drilled them out, double-dimpled the cover and F-706 bulkhead\u00a0and installed flush rivets.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With that fixed, I could install the lower aft bulkhead by the lower screwholes and matchdrill the side and center screw holes.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The upper bulhead needs a bit of trimming. I desided to go for a 9″ radius instead of 8\u00bd”. There is plenty of inside\u00a0clearance, and this way it follows the contour of the top skin better.

I used a cutting disc for trimming the bulkhead. Thats it for tonight.. family quality time!! \ud83d\ude42
