Don't forget the wing root parts (2 of them on each side) must go on before riveting the skins on.
There are a few rivets that are easier to do with the root parts off, like this one.
In place... Though I realized that these parts were not primed, so it came off again...
I noticed several months ago that the holes in the gussets and spacers that go on the inside of the side skins are 4mm, while the skins are 3.2mm. So, I reamed the holes out to 4mm. As a matter of fact I reamed the whole row to 4mm so it looks consistent.
Holding the strips in place while I drilled/reamed.
Left side mostly done.
