Manual Reference:  6-4
Brief Description:  Vertical Stabilizer Frame Assembly

Riveted the vertical stabilizer frame together in preperation for the wing skin. Failed to read the directions clearly and accidentally riveted the rear spart to the frame assembly before the skin. Ended up having to drill out the rivets so the skin can be riveted. Bit of a waste of time due to failure to follow the steps. At least I got some practive removing rivets without doing damage to the spar.

Also learned quite a bit about different methods of riveting in tight spot. So far I prefer the squeezer, but am starting to think the rivet gun is more useful.
