Brief Description:  Finished riveting leading edge, and torqued bolts

"Tonight was great! Just about an hour, but had my daughter helping me by putting rivets in the holes that attach the leading edge skin to the spar. Angie (wifey) was removing clecos as we went, and I gave my 3 year old son a wrench to 'help'.

I finished riveting the leading edge assy in place, and shot all the pop rivets in place for the main rib to spar to nose rib junction. Lastly, I had Angie help me back up the bolts that go through the angles on the main and nose ribs, and through the spar, so that I could torque them. As indicated in image 3, I have torque puttied all the nuts."
