Primed all of the parts that attach to the Fuselage, then bagan the riveting process. I was able to squeeze some of them across the bottom stiffener, but the rest required back riveting, For some reason, I had some difficulty getting the rivets to sit flush, I ended up drilling out several, i finally found out that the problem was that I wasn't being carefule enough with the rest of the structure, anbd clecos, ot the firewall flange were binding of causing some torque so that the parts didn't lay , flat, afte drilling out way too many rivets, I finally, slowed down and checked to make sure that there wasn't anything bostruction the flush set between the part and the back rivet plate, and things went much better. Also this is an area where the SMALL back rivet plate works much better than the large one, I Also found the despite having to turn the firewall back and forth loading & taping rivets then back riveting, it worked much better to only work a small area (4-6 rivets) at a time. This ended up taking longer than I planned, but that seems to be the story of my build. Oh well.... the next project will go quicker!!!!!
