The HS is done! Less the fiberglass tips, of course. Into the house with it so that elevator work can begin in earnest this afternoon.
The HS is done and tucked behind the table for the duration.
Horizontal Stabilizer Done!

Elevator Rib & Horizontal Stabilizer Riveting Progress
Lots of little foam ribs all cut out.
The new rivets arrived, so… I got the assembly prepared for the rear spar and began riveting it in place. The first quarter was done today and the rest is scheduled for tomorrow. Progress!
Horizontal Stabilizer Riveting Nearly Done…
Almost done; so close! I ran into a really unusual issue (an apparently bad batch of rivets), so HS completion – and commencement of the elevators – will have to wait until next week.
I’m sure that Jean will find other things for me to do this weekend… 😎
Horizontal Stabilizer Riveting Continues…
A couple of riveting photos of yours truly (required by the FAA’s amateur-built certification process), plus the stab’s other bottom side in work and completed. On to the top!
Top right ¼ is done! I’m through for today – HS should be completed (less fiberglass tips) tomorrow.
