(no title)
Just squeezed a few more rivets tonight on the front HS spar, right up to the point where I need to have the skin ready. Don’t feel like deburring the skins and I don’t have the frame built for the C frame yet. Instead Adele and I re-labeled all of the drawers in the parts organizer. The blue pen I used was starting to wear off.
I figured out that there was a much easier way to get to the rivets I was trying to squeeze last night. I just needed to come at it from the other direction.
Also called Geoff Sharples, an EAA Technical Counselor. He said he’d stop by once I start attaching the skins to the spars. Since I took the SportAir class, I should know what a good rivet looks like (yikes!). I think a few of my rivets may be squeezed a bit to the side. I must not have had the squeezer on there quite square. I’ll get a second opinion on it and then maybe drill them out and try again.
