Brief Description:  Rivet tank ribs

Prosealed and riveted in first two tank ribs on the left tank. I found that 33 cc's of proseal will do 2 ribs, with zero extra. Used the tungsten bucking bar and it was awesome. I highly recommend one of those. I got mine off ebay considerably less than the going rate. Keep an eye out and get a good deal, but either way, they are worth it. Bucking the rivets was effortless, and it's small size makes any rivet head accessable. There was one rivet right next to a stiffener that I could only get the very corner of the bucking bar on, and it bucked it, no problem. Getting to the leading edge rivet on the top side wasn't too bad, luckily I have long arms. I plan on doing two ribs at a session, through this weekend.
