Posted: Wed Jan 17, 2007 7:04 am Post subject: Riveting Forward Fuselage

Hello  all,

  

 I have searched the  archives and builder's websites, and still have some questions about when to  rivet what sections during the forward fuselage work report. The work report  continually say "cleco X to X", next step, "cleco Z to Z", and only in a few  instances to actually rivet something. Does any have guidelines or experience  with how this section progresses. Is it possible to complete the entire work  report (side skins, floor, instrument panel, etc.) using clecos (assuming I have  enough), then disassemble the entire thing, debur, prime, reassemble, and  rivet?

  

 What other things  besides the front top skin, rear top skins, and top center wings skins should be  left clecoed until nearly finished and wires, cables, brake lines, etc., are  installed.

  

 Thanks!  John

John-

  At the point you are at Zenith assumes you know pretty much how to put 

things together. It really doesn't matter which panels are rivted in what 

order.  When I got to the  point that I was running low on clecos, I began 

to rivet starting at the rear and moving forward. Worked for me.

Hello all,



I have searched the archives and builder's websites, and still have some

questions about when to rivet what sections during the forward fuselage 

work

report. The work report continually say "cleco X to X", next step, "cleco Z

to Z", and only in a few instances to actually rivet something. Does any

have guidelines or experience with how this section progresses. Is it

possible to complete the entire work report (side skins, floor, instrument

panel, etc.) using clecos (assuming I have enough), then disassemble the

entire thing, debur, prime, reassemble, and rivet?



What other things besides the front top skin, rear top skins, and top 

center

wings skins should be left clecoed until nearly finished and wires, cables,

brake lines, etc., are installed.



Thanks! John
