Filler flange / fuel float
I finished riveting the outboard ribs. Then I riveted on the fuel filler flange which I didn't do before putting in the ribs. (I'd suggest doing it before as instructed.. it's easier.)

Fuel filler flange

Finished up the evening by bending the float wire and test fitting the fuel float sender. My bends weren't perfect, so the float touches the top of the skin. (If I adjust it so it doesn't touch the top, it touches the bottom.) I put a dab of proseal where it contacts the top skin just to give it something to hit against when the tanks are full.

(Time: 1.5 hours)
