Finished riveting in the front HS-905 nose ribs into the right HS skin
This middle front rib was not easy to rivet in. I laid the the right Horizontal Stabilizer skin over on its side while still in the wooden cradles. My dad held the skin so it wouldn't move while I riveted the ribs in using my mushroom head rivet gun and bucking bar. I started from the front and worked my way back. I put riveting tape over each rivet head for 2 reasons. One to hold the rivet in place, and the other to prevent scratching the skin. Who knows, maybe I might leave the aluminum unpainted and just buff it up. Anyway, I want to have the option to do so.
