Clecoed on the top skins and wing walk doubler. Drilled, moved the clecos, and drilled the remaining holes. I also removed the bottom skins in preparation for working on the leading edge. I didn’t feel like getting the saw out to make the leading edge cradle, so I studies the instructions and plans for a while. Had some company out in the shop tonight.

I discovered how far 400 clecos will go. The Cleaveland RV Tool Kit came with 300 3/32″ fasteners, and I bought 100 more. The instructions say to cleco on the skins for drilling at every fourth hole. I did every third hole just to be an over achiever. 400 clecos was about 40 shy of doing both the top and bottom skins of one wing. Since you don’t need the top and bottom skins clecoed on at the same time, 300 would have been plenty. Now if you want to be a super over achiever and cleco every other hole, you’ll need more than 300 clecos.
