Brief Description:  Rudder Steps 43 - 44: Riveting the leading edge

Steps 43 - 44: Roll the leading edge and use pop rivets to complete the rudder and set the leading edge.I used a broom handle (actually a fiberglass extension handle for a paint roller) and duct tape to roll the leading edges. This worked fine, though it didn't work as well for the little bit of leading edge found at the top of the rudder (where the (green) counter balance compartment juts out).. if I had a smaller pipe/handle to use, I'd roll that part independantly of the others.Still came out fine. I used duct tape on either side of the hole I was riveting to hold it into the best shape possible. I'm leaving duct tape on the smaller part of the leading edge to see if I can get it's form to become slightly more curved.
