Temporary fasteners?
I noticed in zeniths blogs that they used some sort of cleco to hold the spar caps togather. It looked like a giant cleco with a wing nut on the end? I have looked in spruce and could not find anything that even looked close to it. Does anyone have…

Greg, have you received any of my replies to the nose rib question you asked?

Greg, I think that I'm doing a modified version of the steps you and Matt used to remove the solid rivets. One upside is that I get to do it all over again on the other wing, but now I have experience. I won't be removing all the rivet heads initially on the next wing and that will save time not having to deal with the layer separation.

I've started putting the fuselage back together, the other little things, in preparation for my Inspection in late February? I was ready to hang the wings when the Upgrade was issued, what's another couple of months after 4 years and 7 months?

How are you coming along with your project?
