Thanks Stuart. Progress on this bad boy has been slow but I have been working on it. My re-rivet job turned to crap behind the wing

and now I'm repairing that and have ordered a rivet tool to make the next attempt a lot better.

I think I have a lot of the body work behind the upper surface of the wing completed now. Just a few little touch ups and I'll be ready to start riveting by Monday and hopefully start moving on to more construction. I did get the body work complete on the canopy section. Funny how I thought that was going to be the toughest part of the build.

More sanding this morning. It took longer than I thought to get everything lined out but I think I'm ready to rivet now.
