Brief Description: More proseal and riveting
|
|
Tonight I finished riveting the interior ribs in the tank. I had started riveting them last night after we got back from playing trivia, but the lady that lives here made some very threatening gestures, so I had to quit. This morning, I was awakened quite early by the sound of a vacuum cleaner roaming through the bedroom. Wonder if that might have been a message? So, this evening I got an earlier start. After finishing riveting the interior ribs, I mixed up some Proseal and sealed and riveted the low point drain valve and the fuel filler neck in place. I was supposed to leave out the front rivet in the filler neck, but left out the back one instead. But, that's what they make drills for. After getting those done, I still had enough Proseal to place the inboard rib in the skin, seal it in place, and rivet it to the skin. Then I put the bulkhead elbow in place for the vent line and torqued it in place after gunking it up good with Proseal. After connecting the vent line to the bulkhead elbow, and torquing it in place, I decided to clean up the place a little and call it a night, the outboard end rib can wait.
