Thanks to everyone who asked good questions and answered my question about spar cap buckling during riveting. Turns out that it was just my inexperience showing - not properly clamping the workpiece. Once I firmly clamped everything down with a little special tool I made, it solved the problem. Once again the list comes through - thanks!

Debo I see your new post saying that you overcame the problem. I would caution you though. That may be exactly what you did. Overcame it. The problem is probably still there and you are forcing a fit. You said yourself, you did not get this problem before. There should be no need EVER to make any kind of special tool or clamp for this kind of riveting. Two flat pieces of material laying on top of each other do not need to be clamped together. I don't think you got rid of the problem. You got around it. please look again. Just trying to help....Geoff

Debo Don't want to keep beating you up but I just looked at your pic again and noticed. that cleco on the right is bending away very clearly showing that the holes are out of alignment.....Geoff

Must be that excellent rivet gun you have. Or is it still working?
