Just a few hours in the garage today deburring more wing ribs. After doing it by hand for awhile using sand paper, I tried the 1" die grinder wheel instead. Much, much easier, and far more effective! The grooves that develop in the wheel actually end up making it easier than the flat wheel. Of course the size of the wheel meant I couldn't do all of the little notches, so I'll have to go back through each rib to do those by hand. A few more hours and I'll be done with deburring and the next step will be to bend the flanges to a true 90 degrees, then flute the ribs to flatten them out.
When pulling out the ribs from the wing crate, I also grabbed the bag of hardware. Just out of curiosity, I checked it against the inventory sheet to see if anything has gone missing given that I'm the third owner of the kit. I didn't go to the extreme of counting every nut and bolt, but just checked to see that all bags were there. Surprisingly, only one small bag of rivets is missing. It's possible that it's somewhere in the crate still. If not, when I get closer to being ready to start the wings I'll just order additional rivets. I'm guessing it'll be wise if I order some extras of the most commonly used rivets anyway.
