A little bit. Not much photo worthy, though. Been working on wing tips, LG blocks, doping the tail feathers, little stuff like that.
Edit: a few pics

The elevator horn has a lock nut, though.

Hmm, it's your call Clint but the photo still makes me nervous, seeing how little bolt you've got sticking through. Can you flip the direction of the bolts from what you're showing in the photo and then put a washer and locknut against the ball joint bushing? Looking at the photo you would need a slightly longer bolt to do so (so it would reach the nylock portion of the nut) but it looks like it might work. If it's possible, I'd do that and then also red Loctite the nut on final assembly. Whatever let's you sleep... ;D :##

Good timing, Wayne. A little more progress.
