Christine and I riveted the two bottom cabin skins in place. I told her it would take about 1-1/2 hours. It really took 5 hours with no goofing off. I had to pay back big time. I was her honey-do slave monkey for the rest of the evening.
There isn't a lot of room to get a bucking bar flush with the skin for the back row of rivets. I managed to let the edge of the bucking bar hit the skin and caused a dent. Christine was able to take it out by hitting it with the flat set while I backed it up with a bucking bar. Whew. The whole thing turned out really nice. Next stop - front side skins.
