Bottom Wing Skins -  Section 20 

Picture
We started riveting the bottom skin on the right wing. Some rivets are pretty tough to reach but we find ways. It looks like a couple of days for each bottom skin to get it done.
Picture
Rivets start on the inboard Sec. at the rear spar and then you rivet toward the main spar and out toward the ends.
Picture
We finished the right bottom wing skin today. Sweet, and it looks pretty good for to old coots doing the work.
Picture
Notice the right arm kind of hanging limp. Thats because I can't feel it anymore after bucking 100 rivets.
