Brief Description:  Rivet top main wing skins

Well, today is the day we set some rivets on the top main wing skins. I leave my garage door open so passer byers can stick there head in and say "Hey, what sha do-en". Les has a great additude and helped out a bunch today. We clecoed the top main skins on.. Then thought we would try this new 12" double offset back rivet set I got from Avery. Also new is the back rivet bucking bar. I had to adjust the presser up a bit. Rivets are flush and shop heads are great.

Les would remove a cleco if need be.
Les would insert a rivet.
Ed would get into position and say "Ready"
Les would put pressure on the bucking bar and say "Go"
Ed would drive the rivet.

Les had more to do then I did. Thanks Les.
