Manual Reference:  Section 6
Brief Description:  Building the Empenage

With all of the empenage parts matched drilled a long session of dimpling the rivet holes begins. Started out using the Avery Vice-Grip dimpler on the smaller parts. Used the Avery Hand Squeezer on the larger and thicker parts. Quickly decided that a pneumatic squeezer would be a good investment. More consistent dimples will likely be achieved with the pneumatic squeezer and my hands won't have to double in strength!
