Left Rib #2 - 4.5 hours

Well...this proved to be the biggest pain in the butt rib I have dealt with. For some reason, this one just gave me brain damage start to finish. I must have had about 8 rivets to drill out and try to re set. at the end, 3 were the devil (top three rivets from the leading edge) I just could not get them to set properly. I must have drilled them out three times. A very pain stacking process so not to get shavings in the tank. took me forever to get it done. It's totally zapped my will to build. I bet it's because I got to work late about 8:00pm and I wanted to get finished early to go to bed....yup....I bet that's why things where difficult.
