Closed off the tooling holes and prosealed the inboard and outboard ribs. I decided to put a couple of flush rivets into the punch |
|
die close out patches, used .025 scraps and an426 3-3 rivets. installed and prosealed nutplates for fuel sender. This stuf is a |
|
messy as everybody say's it is. In hind sight i probably used too much pro-seal, but I'd rather go a bit overboard and ensure I |
|
don't have any leaks now or in the future. I mkay have to order another quart, we'll see how it progresses. This took a lot longer |
|
than I had expected. May be beacuse of learning curve and constant clean-up. I had hoped to get this and the stiffeners done |
|
today, but the stiffeners will be tomorrows project, we'll see if we can geto both tanks done or only one.In the process of riveting |
|
the nutplatres, I clobbered a rivet in each tank, thought about drilling it out, but after cleaning everything up I decided it would |
|
do more damage and mess, and while it's not as pretty as possible, it's plenty strong enough to hold the sender. |
