Brief Description:  Bent the Edge of the Forward Top Skin

Bent the Edge of the Forward Top Skin. I missed the opportunity to bend the edge prior to earlier drilling and dimpling the holes of the skins edge. The edge is needed to getr the skin to lay tight after riveting in place. To form the edge, I cut a anglular slit is a block of hard wood and gently massaged the edge to bend. The goal is to not over bend the edge oftherwise it will be counterproductive and will pull away from the surface when riveted. The block worked fairly well. After fitting the skin with clecoes, there are a few areas that need more work. But overall, the skin lays well.
