Most of the time I spent on the airplane today was used to dimple the left tank skin. Hammering away on the c-frame with a mallet is a fairly slow process.

A picture of me dimpling the left tank skin.
After the skin was dimpled, I partially assembled the tank so that I could fabricate the vent line.

The Rolo-Flair is a little awkward to use...clamping it in the vise gives me an extra hand.
