Started riveting the right leading edge - 3.5 hours

I cleco'd the right leading edge together but for some reason, it was a tad more stubborn then the left side. I took my time, cleco'd, uncleco'd, massaged it, recleco'd. Finally it all fell nicely into place. Since I was fresh off the riviting on the left leading edge, I made short work of the right side. I managed to get a good portion of it done, but as it was 10:30 at night and I was getting quite tired. I decided to pull the plug for the evening. (In case your wondering why the two colored primers. The lighter primer is the 2-part epoxy which I am using on parts that I feel are subject to wear and tear, It's so tough compared to the self etching primer)
