what's left on the ribs
I set the rivets on the 4 remaining center ribs on Sunday. . . done
then I set about seeing what else I had to do to finish up the last of the ribs so that I can finally, really, start in on the spar.
I found one nose rib that never got the stiffener riveted on it.
one stiffener angle for said nose rib that needs to get a coat of primer sprayed on it.
All of the aileron nose ribs need primer
All or darn close to all of the rib attach angles need primer (I may just lump that in with the spar stuff :) )
Oh, and in other news my compressor died on Friday. The piston connecting rod snaps and after a few loud hammering sounds the piston departed the assembly.
The replacement compressor was picked up on Saturday. It is a belt driven model. Soooo much quieter.
That's about it
