AHYUP
A WRINKLE

Whilst I was busy thwacking away on the dimpler, I noticed that I had neglected to roll the upper edge of the left side outboard leading edge skin.
So I grabbed the handy dandy Avery edge roller and gave a quick pass on the edge to give a slight roll to the skin so that it would lay flat on the spar.
To properly use the roller, the centerline of the two roller wheels should be perpendicular to the edge of the wing skin.
If the wheels are not perpendicular to the wing they can stretch the edge of the wing skin as shown in this photograph.
An LED flashlight highlights the wave in the photo.
The light may make the wave appear greater than its height of 3/16 of an inch.

As is my habit I am posting the results of my moment of inattention, so that other will not make the same mistake.
I am contemplating ordering a new wing skin at this time.
