Lots of blind riveting! And by blind I'm not referring to pop rivets, unfortunately, but riveting without seeing your bucking bar. Phone cameras were infinitely helpful to see what the heck we had done:

Most of them were ok, but there were more than a few that had to be replaced, too:

Some also required a bit of contortionism to buck:

Still a ton of riveting left...
