    Subject: Machining rivet gun heads
    I'm anxious to rivet my rudder skeleton together, is there a good way to do this at home without any exotic bits or tools. If not, I'll send them to Zenith. Also, is Zinc-Chromate still the rust inhibitor of choice. Finally, I do not want to wear Joyce out at Zenith, so I'll ask the question here. I was originally going to build from plans but due to time contraints realize a kit is the only way to go. Where on the Zenith site or Builders site do I find where to buy the updated construction manual CD. Joyce tells me its there but I have not been able to find it. With the changes that have been made to the kit since I bought my plans I've found that although I avoided any mistakes in putting the rudder skeleton together there was the potential to do something wrong given the predrilling in the new kit parts.

    I had a similar experience attempting full power stalls -- I think torque exceeds the control surface force. I have never been able to get the plane to do anything but a benign mush with low power.
