In this session I finished dimpling, alodined the skins, clecoed them back on, and set keeper rivets. Because I am working by myself for the most part, I need to find ways to reduce the level of effort when riveting. One of the best ways is to backrivet anything I can. So with these skins I have set several keeper rivets to hold everything in place and then I install the rivets and tape them for back riveting. Saves time and usually looks much better.
