Brief Description: More riveting on side skins and bottom skins (10-2
Still on same page. I managed to get most of the bottom rivets complete and started bucking the remainder side rivets. For the most part I tried to do it by myself, but for a few it was getting hard to hold the bucking bar in the right position and the gun, without letting either start to walk around. So, I employed my wonderful shop assistant (A.K.A. wife) to help. She’s helped buck a few on the horizontal stabilizer, where my hands were too big to fit and hold the bucking bar. This time I felt it would be better for me to push on the skin and hold the bucking bar, while she ran the gun. It worked out well and she is starting to get the hang of it. The corner rivets are tricky since the inside tabs don’t lay up against the skin. I used various spacers to get an initial set on the rivet and push the skins together. There’s more to go, but the first corner looks good.
