As promised, work continued today on the HS. I finished priming the parts for the front spar and ribs, and began assembling the front spar. This included riveting the main attachment brackets to the doubler and spar with a healthy number of rivets... this thing has to be strong, and what do you know, it is!

The spar, doubler, and attachment brackets, laid over the instructions calling out the appropriate rivets.
That's all for now... next thing will be to assemble the ribs to the stringers and start putting the whole assembly together!
