I am assuming that the plates should stop just (1/16) short of touching the radius of the spar flange.

What is the difference between the two die types? Will the spring back work with a pneumatic squeeze? -Ted- N371N Working on Elevators -----Original Message----- From: Gary [mailto:rv9er@3rivers.net] Subject: Re: RV9-List: Spring Back Dimple/Dies --> RV9-List message posted by: "Gary" Go ahead and re-hit 'em with the better dies.

The new spring back's are on order. The question is....should I leave the dimpled holes alone, or re dimple them with the spring back's, will that do harm, or does it make any difference at all!!!

After dimpling, the surface "springs back" to a flat surface to give a better and smoother finish....makes a big difference in the surface finish after riveting". So they say! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ted Strand" Subject: RE: RV9-List: Spring Back Dimple/Dies > --> RV9-List message posted by: "Ted Strand" > > Okay, I give......
