Hi Jim,
the prepunched holes are slightly undersized and need to be drilled out for
the rivets to fit properly.
Keep the blue stuff on until final assembly. Your dimples will look nicer
and without a ring around it.
Primer is defiantly your own choice, some do some don't, those who do do it
in many different ways,Godd luck,
Franz

--> RV7-List message posted by: "Jim Nolan" <jamespnolan@earthlink.net>
I just received my RV-7 Empennage and I have some questions that the list
might be able to answer. It's been eleven years since I built an RV and I
realize that things could be done differently now.
1. Do you guys drill out the pre-punched holes or just dimple them the way
they are.
2. Do you leave the blue cellophane on the skins while dimpling.
3. Who won the primer war. I started my RV4 kit with zinc chromate,
graduated to Variprime and haven't paid that much attention to what everyone
is doing now.
Thanks

I have access to "Brand New" (in original packaging)
MIL-T-43435B Lacing Cord, Type 2 (Polyester / Hi
Temp), Finish C (Synthetic Rubber or Elastomer, NOT
Waxed), Size 3 (50 lb min strength; 0.085" wide x
0.014" thick). This Cord is used extensively by
avionic shops and airframe manufacturers to tie
individual electrical wires into bundles for their
avionics, etc.
* Least expensive way to make wire bundles.
* Will not cut into wires like Dental Floss used
by some Builders, as it is "flat".
* Higher Temp rating (-73 Deg C to 177 Deg C)
than Type 1 (-55 Deg C to 121 Deg C) that is
sold by Aircraft Spruce and Chief Aircraft for
$21 per Spool.
* Each Spool contains 500 yards of White or Blue
Polyester Cord. (Share with other Builders.)
* Excellent "Knot" retention.
* See: www.versatileindustrial.com/gudebrod.html
for additional info / pictures.
* Will sell for $15 per Spool - includes
shipping in the US.
