Brief Description:	Drilling HS Skins
Drilled the skin to the forward spar and the rear inboard rib, and clecoed in place the forward spar splice and reinforcing angles. I am to the point where I need a 90° drill attachment or a long #30 drill to drill the inboard ribs together and to the forward spar. I looked at Ace Hardware today but no luck on either. I have an angle attachment that will fit only bits with a hex base, but only fractional drill bit sizes are available with the hex bases to fit quick change chucks. I am tempted to use this with a 1/8” drill bit, since it is only 3/1000” smaller than the #30, but will try to resist the temptation until Steve Ashby gets back in town and I can borrow his. Also, the top and bottom flanges of the inboard main rib appear to be a little short, and may not have sufficient edge distance from the hole to the edge of the flange.
