Down to the Scribe Line

I finally picked up on building again. It was chilly 68 degrees this morning and I felt this was the change I had been waiting for.
Unfortunately, the work that was waiting for me was not very enjoyable. Sanding fiberglass!
It was time to trim the cowling down to its scribe lines, which required quite some manual labor and created a lot of unhealthy dust.
After 3 hours all the edges had been trimmed down.

Next step will be to match the two halves together and test for a tight fit.
I am also anticipating some nasty brake line work as the fittings on the pedals will have to get removed, cleaned and reinstalled.
