Brief Description:    Fitting the stiffeners to the rudder skin
All the fabricated stiffeners were layed out labeled, and then clecoed to the rudder skin. The holes were then match drilled and then everything disassembled. The holes were deburred, dimpled and then primed. The stiffeners were then back riveted to the rudder skin.

This next part was intimidating to me. I dont like bending things. I made a bending machine out of wood and some door hinges. Slid the rudder trailing edge into the machine and then squeezed it all together to bend the trailing edge. Not as scary as I thought but I still dont like bending things.
