JANUARY 25, 2004
Yesterday I did the acid wash and alodine thing to the right main wing ribs.
Today I primed the ribs.
This is a shot of my wing stand arms. They are attached with 1/4 inch bolts and #8 screws below.
The two pieces are held together with 10/32 nuts and bolts.
This is me placing a clamp on the spar. I did not get any pictures while my neighbor,Paul, and I riveted the spars and ribs. This was Paul's first time riveting and he did a perfect job. Not one smile!! Thanks Paul.
The wing leveler. Just turn the upper nut to raise the wing.
The preliminary measurement for twist. The rear spar is then clamped to hold it in position. No picture, I'll get on next time.
One under side skin on. I know it is the outboard skin and needs to be over the inboard . This was just to check the fit.
Both upper skins on but only around the edges, no ribs. Again just to check the fit, I have not drilled the wing walk doubler yet.
The outboard skins needed notches in stand arms for clearance.
