Finished riveting the skins to the Mid fuse bulkheads and ribs. I tried Back riveting, I even ordered the Avery offset extended |
|
back rivet set ( I tried the Cleveland but it was junk) . I tried several different ways, including using the big dumbbell bucking bar. |
|
finally gave up and just bucked them, went much easier, only drilled out 2 rivets. I did 80% of it oon my own, but couldn't reach |
|
the other 20%. When Toery got home, I got her help and we sailed through the remaining, Boy havine 2 people to rivet is WAY |
|
faster (Not just double). Anyway this is finished and ready to mate with the forward section , which is next and then the tailcone. |
|
A real airplane fuselage is in sight. |
