Brief Description: HS Riveting the Last Rivets

I put the rear spar on and lowered the HS holding tool down on to a couple buckets. This allowed easy access to squeece all the skin to frame rivets and great visibility during each squeeze. I think I saw smoke come out of some of the rivets.

Rivets seem flush to me.
