Brief Description: Started Skinning the Horizontal Stabilizer
After the rear spar assembly was completed, the next step was to rivet the skins on. Boy the 35 bucks I spent on a swiveling flush rivet set with a rubber cup from Avery tools was totally worth it. I was much more comfortable flush riveting with that then the rigid non-cupped version that I used on my practice kit. It was a bit tough bucking the rivets on the leading edge of the nose rib, but with some patience I manage to pound all of them with no problem. The remainder of the rivets on the left skin were pretty easy. There was only one rivet that I caught the edge of with the bucking bar. Not to bad for an amateur like me. Checked most of the shop heads with my rivet gauge to make sure I was doing things right. They all looked pretty good, so I am going to forge ahead with the remainder of the horizontal stabilizer tomorrow.
