Begin assembly of the Ailerons - 4 hours

With everything primed, I am ready to begin assembly. I had borrowed a small space pop rivet tool which is very much needed to get the rivets into the front nose rib. I can imagine being able to do this with any other rivet puller.




Next I had clecoed the entire aileron together so I could get the nose ribs sitting proper to rivet them to the spar.
 
Bit of head scratching on how to set these, no way I want to pull out the double offset rivet set.
Fortunately my pneumatic alligator squeezer is perfect for this job. Takes a little bit of time to get it set up right. But it does a great job!




Since I am on a roll....Why not keep going. Next I need to set up the ailerons to rivet the top skins to the spar. So I set up some blocks and screwed the aileron to the them.

 Next I needed to set up the bucking bar for the required angle. I used my stubby tungsen bar and wood shim. The wood shim is a bit wide, so I will need to cut it down a tad to get a perpendicular plane on the rivet .
