Riveted the bottom spar and associated parts to the rear spar

This part went pretty easy until I got to the bottom rudder brace. After a little head scratchin' and a few "Dammit"s, I decided to add a couple of washers under the flat dimple die so it would be able to reach the rivet on the inside of the rudder brace without interfering with the rivet squeezer. Then I squeezed the two center rivets. I used pop rivets for the other 2 rivet holes.
