06-06, vertical stab skin preparation

Fairly straightforward to prep the skins with dimpling and installation of nut-plates.  There was a moderate amount of excess material to remove from the front piece, and I think that it was left on as a side effect of the cutting & folding process at the factory.  The main skin had a tiny ~2"x2" tag left on and I simply don't understand why it would have been left on.  Maybe someday I'll talk with someone who is more conversant with metal working and get some info.
