Brief Description:  Rivet right wing top skins

Since it's a 1-person job, I started riveting the perimeter rivets to the rear spar.

When I tried using the hand squeezer for the root rivets at the wing walk, I couldn't. There wasn't enough room due to the rivet head for the spar stiffeners on the spar web. So I had to buck them with a bucking bar that had an angled face, to get in there.

The rest worked with the squeezer. Got about 1/3 done.
