Manifold Pressure Lines, Cabin Frame Joint
An order from Aircraft Spruce showed up today with some 1/4" ID tygon tubing. I cut a short piece to connect one outlet of the pressure transducer manifold port to the Dynon manifold pressure sensor.

I used the remaining tubing to connect to the other outlet and ran this through the firewall passthrough. Inside the fuselage, I'll transition from 1/4" ID tubing to 1/8" ID tubing for the connection to the Lightspeed electronic ignition.

Finally, I fabricated the splice plates for the cabin frame halves. The pieces that Vans provided for this were not square. The two short edges were not perpendicular to the long edges. I laid the holes out square though since the rivets will be seen on the outside of the cabin frame.
