Today I clecoed the bottom skins to the rear spar attach bulkhead and ribs to give extra rigidity and to help with keeping things steady while I riveted. the skins were clecoed using an unbroken line of clecoes, this line was grasped in the jaws of my workmate and it held everything steady that way.
I then riveted the inboard fore and aft ribs to the rear spar attach and themselves. the then clecoed the 813 outboard rear seat ribs to the rear spar attach bulkhead and riveted them in place.
I removed the assembly from the workmate and riveted the bottom skins to the rear spar attach bulkhead, I started from the centre and worked my way out to the edges.
As the temp was sitting at 101, and lunch was calling, I called a halt for the day.
As a note, a load of small brown butterflies came into visit and one landed on the rear spar attach when I was riveting it, and it stayed there right the way through.
Rear rib assembly clamped in the workmate.
Bottom skins clecoed to the ribs/spar attach, note spar attach clecoes, they clamped in the workmate.
