Brief Description:  Rivet right HS skin

Dimpled right HS skin. Clecoed then rivited HS-707 to skin, using standard flush rivets top and bottom. Clecoed in HS skeleton and riveted skin to skeleton. The storage stands I had made worked well as a brace to hold te HS in a good position to do the riveting to the front spar and HS-708 rib. I was much happier with my riveting today, and left few marks on the skin with the gun.

Used my newly-delivered torque wrench to propely tighten the nuts on the center elevator hinge bracket. Cllecoed in the rear HS spar, so the HS assemble is ready to be riveted to the rear spar and inside and outside ribs. These are all accessible for using the squeezer, so should go pretty quickly.
