We are also to dimple the rib flange hole on the lower tab that connects to the spar flange. All went fine until I got to the ribs with the flap hinges. Could not dimple the rib with pneumatic squeezer. How did everyone else accomplish this task?

Also most of my dimple dies have one ground edge to them for tight spots.
