 Finished deburring, dimpling and priming the leading edge assembly
Time for them rivets!
|
 Hand squeezed the first aft rivet on all the ribs, all the way around
As soon as I removed the aft cleco from the skin and rib, the skin sprang open away from the ribs. So I put some painters tape on the skin, over each rib, to pull the skin in close to each rib for riveting.
|
 Put in 2 more rivets with the 4 inch no-hole yoke
It was easy to put 2 additional rivets using this yoke from Averys. Now it’s time for the rivet gun and bucking bar to finish up the leading edge assembly. I will start at the aft end and work my way forward.
