Started drilling the rivet holes for attaching the nutplates

My wide angle lens on my camera tends to make things look a little distorted. The drill bit is really straight on this picture, it just looks off. I used my Avery 12 inch #40 drill bit to final drill the rivet holes into the skin, using the nutplate as a jig. These bits are really cool! They are flexible and allow you "drill around the corner" with them.
