Brief Description:  Finish Front Spar, & Prepare for Final Assembly

Today the horizontal stabilizer attach brackets arrived from Rivethead-Aero. (Finally!) So I finished match-drilling the front spar assembly. Then I broke down the components, deburred all the holes, and prepped and primed the parts. I also riveted together the stringer/web/inspar rib assembly, as well as installed the nose ribs at the ends of both skins (accessible by pneumatic squeezer), and temporarily clecoed the other nose ribs in place. Tomorrow morning I will rivet together the front spar assembly (spar, caps, doubler, and attach brackets), and Gordon is scheduled to come over in the afternoon to help me buck rivets during the final assembly.
