While I'm on a roll, might as well do the roll

I figured that the RV gods must be with me, so I decided to finish this dude now. I was so wrapped in getting the roller rod tapped on and prepped that I forgot to take a picture of it. I used a 6 foot piece of 1 inch electrical conduit for the roll rod. It took quite a while to duct tape the rudder skin to the conduit. The roll went fairly fast and I was suprised at the amount of force I had to use to bend that puppy. I was very happy with the results as I removed the tape.
