Brief Description:  Left wing bottom skins part #2

Received my order from Aircraft Spruce today. I had another 20 bushings (7/16 OD 1/4 ID) for the ribs to run the pitot and AOA lines in the left wing.

I had another 400 clecos sent and hard to believe that in image #2, there was only enough to cleco the bottom skins of the left and right wing. My hand got a good work out putting those in. It's really amazing how well the skins and the ribs line up.

I final drilled half of the bottom skin of the left wing to #40. I'll move the cleco's over one hole and finish off the final drilling tomorrow night. I think I either cracked or broke a rib on the weekend when I was tubing. Damn hard to breath on my left side. Might have to go see the doctor if it keeps up.

Spoke with a good friend tonight who got back from Oshkosh...he went to a couple of the workshops/clinics Van's and the EAA put on. Looks like he might be building an 8!
