Brief Description:  Final assembly & skin riveting.

Brian and I riveted the ribs to the forward spar. We buggered a couple of round headed rivets and had to drill them out. Not a big deal, the replacements went in fine.

We cleco'd the skin to the inner spar and ribs. After pounding a few practice rivets and getting coordinated we decided to tackle the skin. I had my arm inside with the bucking bar and Brian did the rivet gun. The small tungsten bucking bar worked nicely inside the forward spar. There was just enough room to get the bar and my fingers in there. The 2x rivet gun gave us nice control.
