Reading ahead I see that the top of the spar gets 3/32 rivets and the bottom #30 for the pop rivets. Do I drill and machine counter sink the bottom of the spar to #30 ??????? Thanks ahead.

I squeeze as many rivets as I could w/ 1/8" countersunk rivet and blind riveted the rest. Do a quick test of a #30 and #6 dimple to compare the fit of a blind rivet.
