Glad you are enjoying the process Stan.
The rib stitching will have to be relearned by yours truly when that time comes around. Too many moves to remember from 13 years ago. I know once you get it into your head it goes pretty quickly.

What do we do with the rivets that hold the wing tips to the wing? Do you put anti-chaffing tape down or reinforcing tape and then finishing tape?

Correction, that is the rivets that hold the aluminum strips on for the wing tips.

Those rivets are the flush head type, so if you do a careful job of countersinking the holes there will be nothing sticking up above the surface. I just covered over them with the finishing tapes and all is good. If you want them to be absolutely invisible you coud put a little Superfill over the rivet heads and smooth down perfectly flush. No need for reinforcing or chafing tape in my opinion.
