Brief Description:  Begin riveting the right leading edge...

After getting the right wing twist-less it was time to do some riveting. I made the decision to use blind (pull) rivets on the leading edge rib/spar connection as there isn't a lot of room to manuever here. So after getting the right leading edge clecoed onto the spar I started to pull the rivets. The first two ribs were a snap - then I ran into space isses... I recall reading on my buddy Rob's log that he had the same issue and ordered a "Close quarter rivet puller" from Avery's . I guess I should have paid closer attention, huh Rob? The good news is, I can scoot out to Avery's on my lunch break on Monday and be back in business. So for now - it's on to something else...
