With the skins all riveted, I proceeded with the installation of the rear spar. It attached mostly with blind rivets but there a few solid rivets that are accessible. Thank god I was able to squeeze them. I need a break from bucking for a while.

Started to install the blind rivets and apparently my pop rivet squeezer is broken. Must have busted while dimpling that rib. Quick run to The Lowe's Aviation aisle and I have a new Arrow brand riveter. It got the job done, but I'm not too happy with it. Taking it back. I think I'll buy a pneumatic one from HF.

I had to drill out a few LP-4 rivets the other day and I turned out two rivets short. I guess you don't get to be the top kit company in the world by throwing in extra pull rivets.

Purchases: Lowe's pop riveter, 3/8 tap and handle, Amazon LP4 rivets, maroon scotch rite pads.
