5.3 hrs, 204 rivets
Cleco LE skins and tops skins to assemblies. Realized I forgot to strip the plastic from the inside, so disassembled it, stripped the plastic, and reassembled.

Rivet leading edge skins to nose ribs.
Rivet left top skin/LE skin to spar.


Rivet top skin to main ribs. This requires creative bucking bar techniques. Usually, that involves a grinder and tape!
