July 30, 2007 - Wing Riveting
I'm kind of on hold with the Panel right now.  There are a few more little holes I need to drill but I don't have the things that go in them yet.  They are all on order.  So I'm on hold until they arrive.  No reason to stop work altogether however.  There's always something to work on with this project. 

The flap hinges, for instance.  For some reason I had never riveted them to the wings.   So I did that.  Easy riveting with the Main Squeeze.  Just lots of rivets though. 

Then there were the nutplates that go on the wing root ribs for the fairings to screw in to.  I installed the nutplates for the wing bottoms.  Not hard, just time consuming.
