Brief Description:  Dimpled skins

I dimpled all the skins today taking note not to dimple the outboard edges where the fairings will attach. You also have to use a modified die to dimple the trailing edges so as not to dimple into the crease. The manual discusses a way to modify a regular male die but Cleaveland offers modified male 3/32 for RV14 the elevator in their kit. I used that along with a small diameter female die to make these dimples.
