Both tanks deburred and ready for sealant. Might wait to seal until wing is built.

Hi Henri,  I'd like to keep the tank open so I can easily locate the outlet and drain holes in the rib and wing skin, easier to place the mark through the hole than to measure, I'll be sure to double and triple check for leaks before riveting them into the wings :)

Hi Clint, I think it would be a good idea to seal them now, fill them up and have some time to check if any leaks develop before you put them in the wings.
