Started today off by working on the wing root angle. I made one crimp at a time until the curves for each piece were correct. I also bent the rear piece to match the angle of the root rib.
Then I put the top skin on and drilled the holes to the final size. There was a little bit of interference between the root top skin and the wing top skin, so I trimmed that down.
I also wrapped the nose skin and drilled those holes to the final size. I had a little trouble figuring out exactly where to drill the holes into the root nose rib; I had a little mishap and missed. I have two extra holes in the nose skin now. Oops. I'll fill those with rivets later.
Finished today by getting the root top skin l-angle curved and drilled.
