I started today with the conduit holes in each of the ribs.  They were drilled to final size of 3/4" with my unibit.  This worked pretty well, but the bit chatters quite a bit in the drill press.  Then I deburred each hole with the edge deburring tool, and I'll probably go over each one with a scotchbrite pad or wheel before priming.

Then I cleco'd the ribs to the main spars and cleco'd the rear spars to the ribs to start drilling those holes to size.  I only did the main spars today since I don't want to crawl on the floor to drill the rear spars.  I ran out to work to borrow a creeper to move around on.  I'll drill those tomorrow.
