Brief Description: Flaps - Failed ways to pull rivets it tight spots
Methods that DID NOT WORK to rivet the tight spots on the inboard rib were:
1) I made an angled piece of aluminum per something I saw on EAA website. This requires bending the shaft of the pulled rivet. It did hold the rivet down in the hole nicely, but the shaft broke off to high, not at the top of the rivet. That's no good. I don't think it pulled the rivet all the way either.
2) I used a little piece of copper tubing before resorting to the washers and nuts, to hold the rivet gun up off the rivet above the doubler flange. This didn't work because copper tubing is tooooo soft and allowed the rivet head to deform. I steel tube would have been really cool, but I didn't have one. I'll get some brake line for the future.
