Wife displaying flush-riveted inboard flaperons, with greeting message.
The one with .016" skin feels quite light and strong, while the .020" one is a bit heavy. The unused one will become a sign board later. Old wing panels might make good shade for bicycle parking. ;^)

I am the curious type, and was quite naughty/adventurous as a little boy. When I was forbidden to go outside to play glider in a big field, I invented tiny wax jet model gliders that glided in the water tank. When I was told to stay away from that big water tank, I taught myself to swim too, so that I could continue playing with my wax jet models. Watching Esther Williams swimming in MGM movies and later on TV was good inspiration.
My craftsmanship leaves a lot for improvement. I will get a big magnifying glass with stand to make new dimple dies for a perfect flush. In the picture, the end ribs are still left out.
