Step 1 - tapping this can be quite difficult and may require a top-quality tap and die set. Consider purchasing a [https://cleavelandtool.com/collections/accessories/products/threaded-extruded-aex-tie-down-block pre-tapped version].
Step 3 - Consider also using the center line on the back of the AEX tie down as an additional reference to center the AEX to the centerline of the F-1012A bulkhead. It can be difficult to accurately center the marked lines in the exact centers of the holes as referenced in the plans.

- 5/28/22 I did it per the plans, drawing the two lines exactly.  Now use a cleco CLAMP on the bottom (threaded end) and a wood C clamp on the top gently holding it in place while you drill the 4 holes.  A little confusing in the plans it calls to drill the 3/32 out w/ a # 30 drill.  Correct.  It's a 3/32 hole oversize it to #30 so it will receive a -4 (4/32) rivet down line. See page 10-18 for rivet size.  Drill the 4 #30 holes first and cleco as you go.  Then drill the 3/16 holes also clecoing if you have 3/16 clecos.<br>[[File:2022-05-28 15-36-10.jpg|400x400px|Tie down assembly]]<br>Tie down assembly

The entire F-1035 top plate needs to come off later when you thread in the two push-rods through this opening. Don't mount the servos yet, just the yaw damper servo bracket.
