Prepped Left Splice Plate for Riveting

My wife is leaving town for a few days, so I wanted to get the leading edge riveted back together before she left.  In preparation, I went out this morning before work and drilled, dimpled and primed the shims.

I clecoed everything together, but it’s too late to rivet this tonight.  We’ll knock this out tomorrow morning before she leaves.

Since I couldn’t move forward on the leading edges, I went ahead and drilled and dimpled the wing access plates.  The holes along the straight edge are drilled and dimpled for #6 screws and the rest are drilled and dimpled for #8 screws.
