Rudder Riveting Assembly
Prepped the last skin (dimpled, scotch brited, and primed). Countersunk the trailing edge wedge. Removed the self primer from the trailing edge of the left skin as in classic form, forgot to tape off the trailing edge of the skin. Made sure to do that on the right skin. Colin and Liana came back over and helped to back rivet on the stiffeners, shear clips, and other smaller assemblies. Got two more signatures on the plane as it was Lianas and Colins first time setting a rivet on the plane! Ran out of time to pro-seal the trailing edge wedge together. That process takes about an hour or so to complete and had my parents flying in so we will pick that back up at a later date!
