Left wing conduit run drilled, rear spar deburred, leading edge ribs deburred

Beautiful weather again today, so out to the shop we went.
 
Girls helped strip blue vinyl from the left rear spar in preparation for hole deburring.
 Which my lovely assistant did, in addition to deburring the root flange holes on the left leading edge ribs.
 She also caught a cool action shot of metal shavings flying everywhere (or as she calls it, Shop Glitter).
 I deburred the notches on the left wing main ribs and ran all leading edge ribs over the Scotchbrite wheel.
 Not a lot of clearly visible progress here, but it moved us closer to being able to prime & assemble these parts! Just need to Scotchbrite the webs & flanges of all ribs, flute the leading edge ribs, and then we'll be ready to go.
Piles of unfinished parts are getting smaller!
 
Wings: 3 hrs
