| I bolted the forward wing attach brackets to the fuse. It wasn't easy getting a wrench on the bolt heads, I can tell you. | ||||||

| I pop-riveted the NACA air vents to the fuse. I used 1/8" pop-rivets. I was able to use the Main Squeeze to dimple the skin on the ends, but I had to use the pop-rivet gun dimple tool for the two center holes and the dimples aren't deep enough. I filled the rivet centers with filler. The rivets aren't as flush as I'd like. This area gets painted and I'm hoping it won't look so bad when painted. | ||||||

| When Ray painted my panel, I forgot to have him paint the mapbox door. I went ahead and countersunk the front of the door. I'm going to have to pop-rivet it as well -- there's just no way to rivet it with the Main Squeeze or the Gun that I can see. | ||||||
