Today I corrected the mis-drilled hole for the servo rod for the top utility arm for R5-D4.
First, I sanded off the excess JB Weld that I applied to fill the hole yesterday.
I drilled the new hole in the proper location and at the proper angle, slightly offset from the previous hole.
I did a loose fit of the rod to confirm the location was good. It overlays perfectly with the servo rod on the existing blue arm.
Time to JB Weld it in permanently.
At this point I think the arms are ready for their first coat of primer, and I'll see what further filling and sanding may be required. And after that, I'll finally be able to paint the arms red and call them done.
