RV-9A: Project Entry

Clecoed on the VS skin
I finished riveting the ribs to the front spar but forgot to take a picture of it. All of the rivets went in easily except for the bottom ribs where they attach to the front spar. I just couldn't seem to get the right angle to set the rivets right. I had to drill out these rivets a few times before getting it right. I'm starting to get good at drilling out rivets, sorry to say. I managed to not damage the sides of the holes of the ribs and spars at all.
