    Subject: Fuselage Firewall Gotchas?
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Mike Lauritsen - Work" <mike@cleavelandtool.com> I have a rough video showing the c-frame being used for riveting. I don't have the voice over figured out yet so half of the voice over is bad, and the other half is missing, but at least you can see it in action. There are two sizes for different internet connections: Small (1MB): http://www.cleavelandtool.com/video/rsb12_low.wmv Large (10MB): http://www.cleavelandtool.com/video/rsb12.wmv Mike Lauritsen Cleaveland Aircraft Tool 2225 First St. Boone, Iowa 50036 515-432-6794 mike@cleavelandtool.com -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of LIKE2LOOP@aol.com Sent: Friday, May 26, 2006 4:31 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Fuselage Firewall Gotchas? --> RV10-List message posted by: LIKE2LOOP@aol.com In a message dated 5/26/06 12:45 pm, ricksked@earthlink.net writes: << Use your C-frame to rivet all the 470-4 rivets...it will save you lots of heartache over bucking the rivets. >> keep talking...... I never thought of using the C-frame for seating rivets. Do you hit the sliding arm with the mallet or rivet gun? What die goes in which part? (dome of rivet up or down?) What does the job best?

    Subject: Re: Fuselage Firewall Gotchas?
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Bob Newman" <rnewman@lutron.com> I'm just finishing up the firewall, here's what I did. I used my rivet squeezer with a deep throat jaw for all the -4 rivets possible around the periphery of the firewall. This helped provide a lot rigidity to the sheet metal and ensure the aluminum parts were perfectly seated against the stainless. Then I back-riveted all of the interior rivets using a 3" by 20" chunk of steel laid flat on the work bench and a back rivet set in the pneumatic rivet gun. I found I can control the mating of the parts much better with back riveting and squeezing as opposed to using the c-frame and a hammer.

Tim Olson I think said he had to close his off and use different routing for the cable due to the quadrant. Use your C-frame to rivet all the 470-4 rivets...it will save you lots of heartache over bucking the rivets. That's all I have for you, I'm sure others will have some more.

    Subject: Fiberglass panel options
    From: "Randy DeBauw" <Randy@abros.com>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Randy DeBauw" <Randy@abros.com> On my fiberglass panel I used the ends or the cross brace only. I cut the last 1 1/2" off and riveted it to the fuse side skin. When I placed the panel in place I drilled through the panel into cross brace end pieces then pulled the panel and installed nut plates on them. Now there is one screw in each lower corner to hold it. I have the center console so there is no movement at all.

Second, I was hoping to get information on the mounting differences between the stock aluminum panel and the various fiberglass substitutes available. Specifically, looking at the way the stock panel mounts, there is a lower sub-panel (F-1003B) that screws to the main panel and is riveted to the fuselage side skins. If you use one of the fiberglass substitutes, is this piece required, does it require modifications, or is there a piece that substitutes for it? Also, do any of the three ribs from the F/W to the panel require any modifications? Thanks in advance for any insights from those who've already gone this route.

I had almost no changes to rib (only a slight relief on the lower flange). I moved the MX20 to the top of the stack so the center rib has no modifications at all. Randy

    Subject: RV-10 Longitudinal Level
    What is the longitudinal level line in the RV-10? Is it the bottom of the door opening where the main longeron's are, or is it the longerons that are in the tail cone section? Mine seem to be about 1.7 degrees different. I could not seem to find anything in the plans. Thanks -Mike
