Any advice as to the preferred order? Running the conduit after the lower skin is on looks like a mjor pain, but working around the conduit during riveting looks to be troublesome as well. The tubing will be running through holes I drilled towards the bottom of the ribs in the web below and centered between two lightening holes. Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm sure it is much easier to work around the tube when riveting than to try and pull the tube later.

I had quick-build wings so I used CPVC and pipe suspension hangers. The wing is upside down in the picture.
