September 27, 2008: Right bottom wing skins in place!
Dan Benua (EAA Tech Advisor) will come tomorrow to see the RV12 and give me his input. Today I riveted the 1201R panel to the ribs and continued with the W1203 skin. I did better with the tiedown hole on the right wing compared to the left. With the right wing, I used the unibit and created a very nice, round hole of exact 3/8 dimension.
Then clecoed and riveted into place. Some holes were a bit stubborn in didn't line up well. I used an awl and most holes came into line. For 2-3 holes, I used the #30 drill and then rivets went in easily. It seems like I've used about 1/2 of the 10,000 rivets so far!
