Title: HS Skin Dimples
Had a quick hour today so I started on the 2nd horizontal stabilizer skin with prepping it for assembly (that's right, that means dimples). Did the quick debur of all the holes on the front side, then proceeded to do all of the dimples on one side, and knocked out all of the squeezed dimples on the other side (which leaves me with the DRDT2 and close-quarters dimples next I'm in the shop). And in case any are curious, I did all of the dimples I could reach with the squeezer (because it's the easiest and fastest), then all of the inners I did on the DRDT2, followed by the two holes on each of the inner nose-ribs that required the close-quarters dimple die set. Ah yes - trivia time - there are (by my count) 490 holes in each of the skins, so 980 holes in total on the Horizontal stabilizer...so many future rivets
