Brief Description:  Drilled out pop rivets in 705 bulkhead-Riveted ang

We needed to rivet the angel to the 705 bulkhead and decided to use the pnuematic squeezer that we had had trouble with before. After some practice and advice from Claude and Mack Dean, I was able to use the squeezer with good results but it was frightening. (See image 2) We had multiple temporary pop rivets in the 05 bulkhead that needed drilling out. We were able to drill out the head but had difficulty with the body and elected to leave them until tomorrow since with the heat and tension, both Claude and I were mentally if not physically tired. We have switched from diet Cokes to GatorAid in hopes that we will be able to replentish the loss of electrolytes in the sweltering hangar.
