Subject: | empennage rear spar riveting |
Hello
I have just begun to build an RV8, and I am experiencing my first
problem.
So that's a beginner question:
I have tried several times to set one of the rivet assembling HS-702
with HS-404 and HS-405.
Now the hole is too big and I can not set the rivet.
Is there any solution? (the rivet is an AN-470 AD-4)
Thank you very much for your answers.
Emmanuel.

First, get a rivet squeezer to use instead of the rivet gun. Select an over
length rivet, and gently "pre-squeeze" it to make it swell slightly in
diameter until you achieve a decent fit in the hole. Trim to length as
required, then squeeze. Use the squeezer everywhere you can.
