Brief Description:  Fuselage (Assembly)

Time for the "Conical" bend in the side skin to match the curve of the tailcone. As scary as it sounds, it really went pretty easy with good results.
I started by match drilling an old piece of scrap aluminum angle to the pre-punched rivet holes.
Clamped the skin to the edge of my work table Then, simple twisting and hand forming as per directions did the trick.
