Tank baffle work

I needed to fit the rear baffles to both fuel tanks, so I spent a little time getting them ready to be match drilled to the tank ribs and the skin.  I removed the vinyl from the rivet lines, and deburred all of the edges.  With that finished, I clecoed the baffle to the right tank and match drilled all of the holes that attach the baffle to the skin, and then the ones that attach the baffle to the tank ribs.  The same process was completed for the left tank as well.
