Brief Description:  Dimple Skins & Skeleton

Got tied up for most of the morning rebuilding our Weber barbeque grill for my wife, so I wasn't able to start back on the RV-10 project until 4 pm. I spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening dimpling the two rudder skins with the DRDT-2 dimpler, and then dimpling the skeleton ribs and stiffeners with the pneumatic squeezer. Later in the evening, I spent some time doing rework with the replacement R-1007 parts ordered from Van's, which arrived this afternoon. After cutting out a replacement for the left striker plate and deburring it, I set up the #30 countersink cage in the drill press and then countersunk the rivet holes per the plans, being extra careful this time on the depth setting.
