Getting setup to put in the rest of the spar rivets

I had quite a few rivets left to be put in, riveting the elevator skin into the main spar. I wedged two 4 inch foam mattresses between the spar and the bottom skin to hold the spar away from the skin. Then I put a rubber mat in the area inside the skin where I would be holding the bucking bar.
