RV-9A: Project Entry

Countersunk the main spar
I countersunk all of the remaining holes in the main spar. This took a while because I had to let my (piece of crap) non-oiled compressor cool off between countersinking sessions. When I build my next RV, I'm going to buy an oiled 60 gallon compressor and put this one out in the hangar for airing up tires. As I went along, I checked the depth of my holes with a piece of dimpled scrap sheet metal.
