Back-riveted the stiffeners on

For some reason, I forgot to take a picture of the back riveting process when attaching the stiffeners. Oh well, brain fart. Here I am removing the painters tape after riveting on all of the stiffeners. The painters tape was not such a great idea (a suggestion from another builder). The texture of the tape actually showed up on the rivet head (not on the skin). It's hardly noticable, but there none the less. Next time I'll break down and buy some riveters tape.
