Brief Description:  L wing skin prep, aileron brackets

Finished pre-population of 65% of the rivets in the L top skin; ready for riveting

Stated to dimple aileron skins -- did my first missed dimple; skin is quite springy and it jumped on the downswing of the hammer. Doh. Built up a jig to hold the skin away from the c-frame and constarin it properly. Bought a new skin for a do-over.

Primed aileron stiffeners and bracket parts. Riveted them together; though they could only go on one way, but no, two of the L-angle pieces were swapped when I cleco'ed them up. Found out after all rivets were driven -- no drilling out with these -9 and -11 rivets. Oh Vans.

$200 later, new parts are in hand.

Not the most productive day in the shop.
