Rounding the corners

Now that the floor was attached the to fuselage, it was time to give it a smooth transition by rounding the corners.

I started out by rounding the top longeron corners. Here is the before picture (right side):

Let the sanding begin! (please don't make fun of my little hand-held sanding block...)

More sanding...

More sanding...

I love how the plans say, "you can do this in 3 hours"... I guess they forgot to include "...if you're Superman or a droidbot"... 

 Smoooooooth... real smooooooooth!

With the top longerons complete, I flipped the fuselage over and started work on the floor. This is how it looked like at the start:

Another 'before' pic:

I started out by trimming large chunks using a knife at about a 45 degree angle...

I road the knife along the lower longeron's corner... 

I removed as much material as I could with the knife... I then proceeded to sand everything down nice and smooth...

Smoother than a baby's butt!!!
