Brief Description:  Riveting the Rudder Stiffeners

Today, I cleaned the shop up and prepared my pneumatic pop riveter for use. This tool was just a Harbor Freight jobber but it worked great! My friend Selma came over to get in on the action while Aneta was at her Baby Yoga class for pregnant ladies. She really like the pneumatic pop rivet puller. In fact, she liked it so much that once I showed her how to use it, she completed all of the rudder spar stiffener plates in short order. Well done Selma!
Later we attended a BBQ at Ron Duren's house to see his RV-7 project. It was really inspiring to see his plane as it's coming together. He's a lot further along.
