Brief Description:  Bottom left skins

Today I continued riveting the bottom skins to the left wing. I finished with the inboard skin and got a start on the outboard skin. My rivet sets were much better today I I did not make any "smiles" in the skins, after having made several yesterday.

I was concenred that the skin holes were not matching up well with the main spar but I was able to "coax" things back into position and set all main spar rivets in the inboard skin.

This is tough riveting as it is very hard to get the bucking bar op to the rear spar. And it was really hot today, high of 95 degrees so the session was shortened when I got too hot. More rivets tomorrow....
