(Garey Wittich) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 10:44:52 PM PST US From: Garey Wittich Subject: RV8-List: Use a special Bucking Bar inside the HS ? --> RV8-List message posted by: Garey Wittich There is not much space "inside" the Horiz Stabilizer Assy to hold a Bucking Bar against the Rivet closed to the leading edge of the inner most Rib (HS607), as I reach my arm inside. Did you use a special Bucking Bar? It seems like a "hit and miss" situation to get a good shop head on this rivet, as it is done by Braille. If one screws up, it seems to me it would be difficult to drill it out without doing damage. Any helpfull ideas ? Did you use a "Pop Rivet" because of accessability ? If so what was it. All Skins and Ribs are dimpled for a -3 Rivet, so a CS4-4 ( 4/32 ) is too big in diameter. Thanks, Garey RV-8A QB Kit Santa Monica, CA __________________________________ http://search.yahoo.com
