Wings


My son Jim agreed to help me out today and we got started riveting the bottom skin on the left wing. His arms are bigger than mine so I got to buck and he shot the rivets. You can tell from the picture how red and scraped my arm is from all the contortions trying to get the bucking bar in the correct position. We're about half way through.
