Ready to skin
I am very close to being ready to skin the right wing. I have put the nose ribs on and have gotten them all straightened. I have to tie them all together with some thread-all so I can get my rib spacing correct when I start to drill on the leading edge skin. I won't be putting a landing light in the leading edge skin on this airplane. It will go in the wing tips. This will save some time as I won't have to cut a bunch of holes in the skin. After I get the skin drilled it will be time for deburring and dimpling skins. Then on to primer and bucking rivets. Once the leading edge skin is in place and riveted down, I will get the main top skin drilled on. This will lock it all into place when that skin is riveted down.
