Most of the night was spent talking to neighbors about the project, and an hour was spent building.

The tank channels were cut to size and an A4 hole finder was fabricated.

I also stopped by a NAPA and acquired some wiring supplies for the fuel tank.

The hole finder was simple to make using some scrap from the slat hole skin supports that I made in the incorrect direction. I kept some of the flange to provide stiffness. At first I had the rivet head centering the tool, but that didn't work too well on A3 holes. Flipping the rivet so a partially pulled rivet's bulb does the centering worked much better.
