The last two holes of the tip rib are riveted using chisel as buckling bar, looks ok


Chisel in bucking position


The last hole on the root rib is so hard to rivet using chisel, I went ahead using a MS319BS pop rivet


Counter balance weight is secured using self-locking nut


Started working on stiffeners of left rudder
