Brief Description:  Drilled top skin to left wing

After being sick for 2 weeks, I was finally able to get out in the shop for a bit today. I got my wife to come out and help. I needed her to push and pull on the ribs so I could line up my center lines with my own pilot holes. After I had every other hole clecoed to the ribs, I showed Angie how do drill the other holes. Then I simply turned her loose to drill the holes in between the clecoes while I figured out how I wanted to tackle the end rib. (Jig was in the way until now). By the time she worked her way outboard to me, I was ready to drill the skin to the tip rib. I have done 99% of this project by myself, but I HAD to have help today. Worked out great! Skin is ready to be removed, deburred, and dimpled!
