F-01470-L/R side skins get cleco'd for various match-drilling needs.
The F-01418A-L/R upper longerons get countersunk. This is the left longeron. The holes will need to be re-primed. The lower longeron gets the same exercise (not shown).
The F-01485-L/R side plates get countersunk.
FF-00006B-L/R cowl hinges get countersunk. See my later post for my thoughts on these hinges.
I back-riveted the side plates and F-01464-L/R to the side skins. It's important to keep things clamped down lest the rivets find themselves prideful. I used AN26AD4-7.5 instead of the -8s called for in the plans. The -8s were too long and kept clenching over. I also used AN426AD3-4 on the rivets holding the side plate to the skin rather than the called out -3.5 as I felt the latter were too short.
