22/06/2008 - Cleaning and starting on riveting the stiffeners

I did not get in the garage till late today so only managed 1.5 hours, but it was a significant step forward.

The first picture shows the work carried out yesterday, the next pictures show the tools of trade

Everything had a clean with the Acetone to get rid of grease and dirt.  The rivets had a dip in it as well !

Then the mess starts.  The stiffeners are back riveted on after smearing glupe down the mating surface of the stiffener.  It oozes out every where.  Once the rivets are set then a healthy dollop of glupe goes on each head and a fillet all the way around the stiffener.  Acetone is use to clean up the heads and any spills.  Frankly it looks a right mess, but as long as it doesn't leak I guess it doesn't matter.
