Larry,
I agree with both, but would like to add one. If the hole is not the
correct size for the rivet (wallered out) it will bend as well.

Terry,
There are two possible reasons for bending the rivets.
1. The rivets are to long for the application.
2. The squeezer is not square with the rivet.
Either one would cause the problem you are describing.

Thanks for the tips quys, yeah I figured all those reasons. However, the
holes were drilled #30, I changed rivet dies (cause I though maybe one was
not squared), I even used another squeezer, I purposely made sure to keep
everything square and straight while squeezing slowly. You could almost see
the point at which the rivet would head south! Anyway, I think a length of
4.5 instead of 5 may be the answer. There are not 470AD4-4.5 rivets in the
emp or wing kit, so maybe I should just order a rivet cutter for these
situations? I really think now it is the length, even when driving the
rivets I had to be really careful and controled, they still wanted to bend!
Thanks again All,

Hi All,
Sorry for the plug here, but I just finished the first part of my new online
store. Items for sale include ATO blade fuses, fuse blocks, terminals,
wire, and more to come. Same brand and quality of products, but %25-50
cheaper than most other places on the web (Van's, etc..).
Wes able to negotiate some great deals with suppliers so we all can save
money.
The store is on my website at: http://www.steinair.com and click on "store".
Cheers,
Stein Bruch

I have had a couple of problems and bought a rivet
cutter from Avery. I found I can use a belt sander to
shorten them just a bit. Use your gauge to make sure
you don't get too short.

| Subject: | Cautionary on Epoxy mixing cups |
--> RV9-List message posted by: Leland <Federigo@pacbell.net>
Several months ago I bought a package of 3 oz "Epoxy Mixing Cups" from
Aircraft Spruce, P/N 01-25600. Unfortunately these cups are "waxed", and
wax prevents mixed epoxy from curing. I ruined three small batches of
epoxy before determining that the problem was with the cups.
Fortunately, cleaning the applied epoxy off the parts was easy.
