Riveted right aileron and worked on bending brake: 4 hours

I got all the stiffeners back riveted to the right aileron skin. Went quickly and very good results.

I spent a fair amount of time trying to construct a new bending brake for the aileron skins. This brake needs to be about 58" long. I have not had any luck finding off the shelf lumber that is straight enough to make a good brake out of.

I'm going to a local EAA meeting tomorrow night and I hope to get some suggestions there.

No pictures today.
