Brief Description:  Began skinning right wing

I moved the left wing over to the wing sling, which seems to work fine, and began prepping the skeleton of the right wing, basically drilling out the main spar and aft spar holes to a #30 and then deburring.

Then I fit the inboard bottom skin and prepped the doubler plate, drilling out 8 holes to #22, removing, deburring and then reinstalled everything using the "rivet method" to get everything to fit properly . Basically I put the rivets in every other hole while there is play in the skin and ribs to allow them to slip in easily, then put clecoes in all open holes and then start pulling.

This creates a much more civilized method where there is no skin disfiguration by forcing a rivet in. Also it makes everything fit so much better.
