Match drilled and deburred Ailerons - 4 hours

Pickup where I left off yesterday, I match drilled all the stiffeners to the aileron skins. But the part that I am dreading is the deburring of the skins and stiffeners. A very slow and painful process....I plugged away. Again, Netflix to the rescue to help pass the time. After some time it was all done, and then before dimpling I scuffed everything up with scotchbrite.

I then started dimpling the stiffeners

One little slip up with the pneumatic squeezer resulted in a bad dimple....I will need to replace one stiffener. Doh!!!
