Brief Description:  Install F-705, 706 Platenuts; Prep F-715R

Prepared platenuts by dimpling the two-lug and running a tap through all. Installed platenuts on F-705 and F-706 with the squeezer.

Got the new F-715 ribs and began by edge finishing with files, emory paper and scotchbrite. Marked the centerline on bottom flange of F-715R. Measured forward edge and estimated amount to cut off, took about half off with the sander to start. Marked the location of rivet holes on the bottom flange and began fluting the rib to match the curve of the rivet holes. Test fits revealed the need to remove more material from the forward edge. Used sander and got all the way down to my original estimate after several iterations. Decided I will drill the bottom flange first, then aft for rivets and bolt, then the F-704 holes last.
