Subject: | RE:Filler for unwanted rivet holes. |
Garey, if the skin is not already riveted on you could try slightly
countersinking both sides of the hole, then using your rivet cutter to cut
off a length of rivet shank a few gnat's whiskers longer than the thickness
of the skin and using a back-riveting plate and mushroom or back-riveting
set to drive the stub in the hole - not too enthusiastically - you don't
want to stretch the skin. A little work with a sanding pad or scotchbrite
and the repair will be hardly noticed.

"What material have you Builders used to fill in a couple of unwanted holes
in the
Skin, where a rivet can NOT be placed to plug the hole ????
Is Super-Fil a possible solution ????

On the the other hand.........
I have an RC Allen electrical gyro horizon that I purchased as a "rebuilt"
unit over ten years ago and it is still going strong.

Dear Listers,
I need to be pointed to the RV gent who makes the RV4 rear c/p rudder kit. It's
the one with the simple bent 1/2" rod shaped like a square U and uses light
weight chain attached to the rudder cable.
Thanks ...

I have done similar to what John says on a 3/32" hole in 0.032 skin. Counte
r sunk both sides and then set a 3/32" rivet. Once set=2C I used a RIVET SH
AVER to cut away the excess. Done correctly=2C it is almost impossible to
tell that a repair has been made.

You can go one better and set a NAS 1097 reduced head rivet in a smaller
countersunk hole, if it's not already dimpled full size.
