Brief Description: Dimpled HS skins & Started Riveting
Tonight I dimpled all of the holes in the HS skins and began riveting the framework together. Unfortunately, I was again short on rivets and had to stop because of it. I am amazed because I have always heard that Vans gives you plenty of rivets with the kits. However, this is the second time I have run short on rivets. The first time, I ordered extras because I had to redo the VS spar, but with that order I included some other rivet sizes that I was short on. Well apparently it has happened again, except this time I'm not to blame because I haven't drilled out any bad rivets! Oh well. Ordering some more rivets tomorrow... Guess I'll get started on the elevators.
HS Skins, deburred and dimpled.
Partially riveted ribs and caps. Need more rivets!
