Brief Description:  Drilled RH top skin to skeleton

Well, after way too long, after getting a new job, moving, and getting a shop set up, I am back in business. Today was a great day! I got the jig leveled nicely, and leveled the skeleton in the jig. I had already located the top skin to the skeleton with the top row of holes. (The ones in the spar web) I had also already pre-drilled the skin. (my version of pre-punch... haha)

Once I got that big floppy single piece top skin in place, I started drilling. My wonderful wife helped me adjust the ribs to make sure that the centerline was visible when I drilled the skin to the skelton. It went pretty quick with her help. I also have a bit of damage on the tip rib, at the rear spar. I guess it happened in the jig/stand during the move. Nothing that cannot be repaired. I am making an angle to go in there for support anyway, like I did on the LH wing.
