Brief Description:  Set Inboard-most 5 Rivets - Rear Spar

I used a very thin profile bucking bar that had a channel running length-wise to set the 5 inboard-most rivets along the rear spar. The channel fit over the rivets that were set in the web of the rear spar. This worked out very well and these 5 rivets were not nearly as hard to set as I thought they would be. I wish I had left these same holes open on the right wing rather than buggering them up with the squeezer. They will need to be drilled out and replaced. Once I had these final rivets set on the left wing, I noticed some small scratches on the web of the spar. Yikes. I used a small scotchbrite wheel in my dremel tool to polish these out.
