I recieved the pop rivet dimpler from Avery's today and was able to finish the rudder and right elevator skins. I then primmed the inside of the right elevator skin with SW988. While it was drying I riveted the E703 to E704 end ribs. When the skin w dry I riveted the elevator stiffners to the skin using the back riveter. The skin was then matched drilled to the right elevator frame, then the frame and skin was dimpled. All that needs to be done is to finish with the counterbalance weight, attatch it to the frame then squeeze on the skin and I will have a right elevator. I worked 4 hours tonight. 8:30pm until 12:30am
