Brief Description:  L. Elevator-Riveting Stiffeners

Had some issues with rivets clenching over. It appears that the rivets are just a bit long, although not long enough to drop down a size in length. The other issue appears that the rivet is slightly loose in the hole. I used my squeezer to “fatten up” the rivets and now they squash out squarely. To “fatten up” the rivet, I punched a small hole in a strip of poster board to hold the rivet while squeezing it—didn’t want any fingers “fattened up”! Backriveted all of the short stiffeners to the left elevator.
