What a session! wasted a LOT of time trying to use the extended length back riveting set that i got frrom Cleveland and the |
|
corresponding buccking bar/dumbell while I was @ OSH this summer. The tool is a piece of @#$#@! the delrin cover at the end |
|
cracked on the second rivet, it takes way too much time on each rivet to set, even after pumping up the air pressure to 60 +lbs. I |
|
really wanted nice looking wing skins and was bummed by the whole thing, I was able to set a few of them using the 'normal |
|
back reveit set and they looked nice. For grins, I tried bucking a couple to see what the result might be. I recall reading on Mike |
|
howe's site that he had trouble backriveting and resorted to bucking, Well, with Ace bucker Torey at the ready, the bucked rivets |
|
turned out as nice as the bac-reveted ones, so we went ahead and completed the remainder of the W1002 inboard skin. I'm |
|
really happy with the results. Torey pooped out on me after the inboard skin, I went ahead and loaded and taped all of the |
|
remaining rivets in the W1003 outboard skin, for the next session (Monday). |
