Brief Description:  Firewall - Rivet firewall. Part 1.

I decided to squeeze as many of these rivets as possible.
Image 1 and 2 show me squeezing the side stiffeners. Having the firewall clamped on top of the bench worked well for these rivets.

When squeeze riveting its important to have 2 things.
1.) Must be comfortable, not contorted.
2.) Have visability on both sides of the rivet.

Image 3 shows how I squeezed the bottom stiffener. Here I just had the firewall sitting on the floor on it's side.

No issues here. All rivets good.
