Manual Reference:  skins
Brief Description:  finished riveting forward top skin

Used CherryMax 3214 rivets to rivet top forward skin to longeron. These rivets would be almost impossible to buck. Upsized the holes to 1/8 and used a stronger CherryMax substitute rivet.

These 3214's are nice because the shaft is a 1/8 shaft, but the heads are only .20", the same size as a 3/32 bucked rivet. When the plane is finished, the alternative rivet use should be pretty tough to see.
