Arm rests are supposed to be a straightforeward job, but I messed one hole to the the F705 bulkhead when using angled drill. But this is not a big deal since the load there is not big, an ovalized hole would be ok here. I will do some finish when it is time to rivet the arm rest.

The conical bend part went smoothly. I didn't have cracks on the tight bend at the forward end. The fit is good.
