Made my first glaring mistake on the plane that I'm not sure how to fix. I'm working on the rudder and has to fabricate the R-716 rudder bottom attach strips. Well I measured wrong and they are about two inches too short. The problem is I don't have enough material left to fabricate new ones of the right length. I know I can order more, but looking at what these attach strips do, I think I can make it work. I cut the fabricated ones so that the end fell between two rivets and cut an additional piece to fill in the difference. Pics are attached. I need to deburr and clean it up, but the idea is circled in the pic.
