Brief Description:  Rivet 10: F-728 Rib to 706 Bulkhead

I was going to NOT rivet the top of the F-706 and F728 but after I installed the bulkhead onto the aft fuselage and began to ponder the next step I decided to rivet it anyway.

Also I had one bad hole that was slightly enlarged and so I made a two hole strap to fix it. I tried one hole washers, but they don't really work and notes from Van's and sheet metal workers say if you have to make a washer for the shop side of a rivet, make it a two hole washer because it works better.
