I've got every rivet stem I ever pulled in a large coffee can 7/8 full. You're welcome to come to my house and count them. Seriously though, now that you mention it I really should get a count. Did anyone else keep the stems I wonder. Maybe I'll count them over Xmas of no one comes up with an answer....Geoff

Geoff, Make it easy on yourself. Count out an even hundred, and weigh the can. Wink

I read somewhere it is around 7 - 8 thousand, though it could vary depending
on details of the individual construction.
Up here in ND it's been snowing and below zero for the last 2 weeks so my
test flying has stalled out at 34 hours!
Merry Xmas to everyone!

I was thinking that a "guess the number" contest in the local EAA chapter
would be interesting! Winner gets a flight in the plane.

My plans for my 701 which I built in 1996 show:
A-4 (1/8") = 5500
A-5 (5/32) = 1300

Realize of course that does not include all the rivets you have to drill out for one reason or another and replace. Smile

Good luck! Smile
