Brief Description:  SB 14-01-31.8 Continued

Removed the flange rivets on the ribs (see previous post). Probably the best tool to use for removing rivets is the Rivet Removal tool I bought for under $50. The tool centers the drill bit on the rivet head so it drill down the center. As I found out in later work sessions...it works FANTASTIC as long as there is enough clearance to get the tool in perpendicular to the rivet. Removing some rivets on the HS-810 Reinforcement Angle had very restrictive distance from the angle to the rivet location. Will detail that later.
