Make a clamp from 3/4" ply that approximates an old fashioned one piece clothespin. Be careful not to accidentally deform the skin by forcing it against the rib flange. I bent the rib flange slightly so that it mates flush with the skin at the leading edge.

When looking down the interior of the leading edge of the skin there is a slight air gap (approx1/16") between the skin and the flange of the HS607.
