Time to assemble

I masked off the spar flange so that I can prime it. I've already used alodine to help with corrosion, but I figure a little extra insurance can't hurt.


Here is how it turned out after the primer dried.


Now the leading edge gets cleco'd on ready for riveting.



As a test fit, I installed the tie down loop to see how it would fit. The Grant's did a great job in fabricating the bracket inside the wing.


Inside, I used MSP-4-2 through 4-4 rivets I pulled them from the inside to get the tightest fit. It was pretty hard to do these, but I think the results were worth it. No gaps between the rib and the spar.



All the cleco's are gone, and it's permanently attached.


All, were done, except for this one rivet. I couldn't fit any of my squeezer in there, or bucking bars. I ended up getting a piece of steel and sanding it down so that it could fit in that space.
