Well, I think I reached a major milestone (albeit a bit too soon.) Pictured below is the last LP4-3 rivet from the big box of 10,000. Given the several hundred rivets I’ve had to remove, I have ordered another 1000 from Van’s to complement my remaining 2500 rivets. Any way you look at it, I’m at least 75 % of the way though pulling rivets on this bird!
Rivet # 10,000
Here’s the bottom skin, all riveted in place. This picture complements the one in the preceding page which shows the internal rib structures.
