Brief Description:  Rolled and dimpled fuselage skins

Rolled the edges of the fuselage skins as per instructions for the lap joints.

Dimpled the five #30 holes on each side of the Fwd floor panel that are common with the machine countersunk holes in bottom web of the lower longeron. The holes near the gear towers could not be reached with a squeezer so we used the C-frame's shafts and some spacer blocks to get them dimpled.

Dimpled the Fwd side skins, Mid side skins, Center bottom skins and Aft bottom skin Fwd.
