A short session before going to my real job. The rivets that proved difficult yesterday settled quite easily today. Half the rivets are done on one of the skins.

Riveting of the horizontal stab's skins begins with the riveting of an intermediate rib before assembling the forward spar. I stopped working on the parts after running into some trouble bucking rivets. After having drilled out some, I trained again on some scrap parts, I was in fact using to much air pressure in my tool.

The vertical stab is complete after the skin was riveted on the skeleton. The small rivets proved quite easy to buck. I got one ding on the skin after the tool slipped, it will be masked under the paint.

Finished riveting the skeleton, the vertical stab is now ready for final assembly.

Vertical stab. skeleton assembly. The rear spar is complete, on the front spar, three rivets proved difficult, I tried to squeeze them (I shouldn't have done it)? I'll buck them tomorrow.
