1007- V.Stab- p.6-3 step 6-7

Vertical Stabilizer - 2 hrs 25 mins (V.S. 11:01, Empennage 13:42, Total 25:29)

Scuff and dimple the VS skin. Got to try the C-frame dimpler, squeezer set, and pop rivet set. My forearms are on fire. For the C-frame, I also fabricated a platform out of spare wood from the empennage crate and a 2x4 scrap to hold a piece up at the same level as the dimple die. It's going to come in really handy during the build.

Disassembled the skeleton to deburr and dimple. Forgot to scuff two of the pieces before dimpling, but corrected myself. Dinner time, I'll be back for round two later tonight... -M
