04/09/2008 - Finishing the top skins and adding the wiring conduit

A few hours were spent finishing the cradle for the wing this morning.  Then Bernard came around again so all the riveting could be finished.

We took the wing off the jig and with a little rearrangement of the workshop we could freely move the wing around for the first time.  Feels good.

Now the trick with the wiring conduit is to stretch it and move it through one rib at a time starting at the outboard end and working towards the ribs that are close together, which is by far the trickier part.  Its noisy, but it did not take too long to put it in.  Now I know what your thinking, 'your not putting lights in' so why the wiring conduit?  Well if I do retro fit later on into the wing tips then I always have this in place to accept the wires as it would not be possible to put this in later.
