Tonight I edge finished the top outboard wing skin and then Jackie came abd helped me dimple it on thew DRDT-2. Just sweet; 25 minutes to dimple all those holes!! The skin is now ready for priming. I'd like to do it next weekend but the long range weather forecast doesn't look to good. While I had Jackie's attention I got her to work deburring the holes on the wing ribs while I deburred the holes in the rear spar. Tomorrow night we need to deburr the inside of the wing rib holes, dimple the rear spar & ribs and then 'touch up' the dimples in the rear spar as per Vans recommendations. That means we could be thinking about installing the top inboard skin on Wednesday night, all being well. Kind cool, and kinda scary at the same time. Jackie hasn't really done any rivetting to speak of so it'll be new ground for her. Following the advice in the instructions I purchase an extra long back rivet set (and a double offset one too) so all Jackie will need to do is hold the round bucking bar I also purchased on the manufactured head: hopefully it will all go sweet and we'll have some good rivets. Especially since this is the top surface.
