Not a Classic sorry but an XS Wing that had been 'closed up'. Still

It went well with a little puzzlement as to the direction you have to 
drill. Some 'blind' faith needed but it all works well although finding 
and grabbing
the welding wire 'pull through' needed a little patience. When 
completed it looks fine and will cause little cosmetic change if any.

Getting a good cutting tube and drilling slowly and carefully is a 
start. Using a strong rigid template to position L/E hole helped.
It will be fine. Just seems a little crazy at first.
