Drilled holes into the HS-908 Attach angles into the fuselage
These holes can only drilled with an angle drill. In fact, I don't know how anyone can build an RV without one. I have found that just about everytime I say "Oh, I don't need that tool", I go out and get it, out of necessity. You'll notice that I dropped some bolts in the holes I just drilled. They aren't installed. I just dropped them in the holes as I drilled, to make sure things line up.
Update: 2/23/2010: I received and email from my good buddy Robert about when to drill the holes on the HS and about getting it lined up and level. The instructions only mention measuring from the firewall back and using the tooling holes for proper height from the fuselage rear deck. I read on VAF where someone mentioned to make sure that the HS is level with the main wing spar. So I did that and found that I was off a little. So I clecoed on the 2 rear top skins and checked it again and everything was OK. I wish now I had clecoed the top rear skins on and done this leveling process before drilling these holes. The rear skins are the things that keep the HS from twisting around, not just the rear fuselage deck piece.
