Brief Description:  Dimple Ribs and skins

Nose ribs, Main ribs - using squeezer as much as possible.
Squeezer was good for three holes (each flange) on ribs then used back rivet plate (with dimpled hole) and male die in rivet gun to do next three holes.
Skins - nose ribs pretty accessible; main skins get edges and finish with dimpler
Used aileron braces to hold up skins to make it easier to dimple with the squeezer.
Used rivet gun with male dimple die drive into bucking bar holding female die to do center hole (from each edge).
