Brief Description:  Started to rivet boot cowl

I started to rivet the top skin on today. I made it as far as I could working solo, hopefully my riveting buddy will be able to help soon. After on final look I clecoed on the skin and got to work. I use the clecoes with the colored boots to make sure I pick up the correct size rivet, I also wrote on the skin the rivet sizes. I started in the middle and alternated between bulkheads and working side to side until I reached the longeron rivets. There were a few tight spots but fairy easy work for the most part. I buggered up one rivet early on (out of practice) but it set fine after drilling it out. This is exciting getting the last skin done.
