Sonex Tail Kit Step by Step Build: Part 1

This is part 1 of a video series showing the step by step building demonstration of the Sonex Aircraft's Tail kit (vertical and horizontal stabilizers, rudder and elevator). From tool selection to final riveting - the entire build is documented in this HomebuiltHELP video now brought to RUclips. Each part follows the previous video section in sequential order. This tail kit is essentially the same for both the Sonex and Onex model aircraft kits.

Does anyone know the name of the clamp shown at 14:33 of 'Sonex Tail Kit Step by Step Build: Part 1 and where I can get this clamp?

I wish Sonex had a build manual like other kits instead of just blueprints. I'm sure it's just me, but I found them much harder to follow than a 3 ring binder of step-by-step directions would be (Zenith, RV, Kitfox, etc.). And I'm an A&P who got straight A's in blueprint reading/drawing! I built the Sonex tail kit, then sold it. What are your thoughts Jon?

How do you debur the inside of a hole tight against the side of a tube that you have no access to such as a gyro 2" square tube with a 1/4" hole? This is what you deal with while building a gyroplane.

[@5xls]

I use this type of tool for that. You can carefully debur the inside of a hole from the outside. www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/topages/deburringtool.php?clickkey=7152
