Can someone send me a picture of one of the aileron bellcranks that will explain the riveted spacer assembly on 6W10-1&2. The side view drawing of the spacer and bellcrank showing countersunk rivets does not make sense to me. Looks like both the shop-head and factory-head are both countersunk on each rivet. Is this correct? How does one do this?

Kevin---- these are solid countersunk rivets--------make countersink holes on both sides of 6W10-2, install rivet , and than peen over with hammer. smooth the peened side with a file to make it flush (smooth to the surface of 6W10-2 (spacer).
Hope this helps--

Thanks Fritz. That seemed to be the direction the plans were pointing me toward, but this is the first I’ve ever heard of this countersinking both sides business. I’ll give it a shot.

I don't have the photo you asked for but the way to get a countersunk head
on both ends of a rivet is this. Both sides of the rivet hole ARE
countersunk. You have to select the right length rivet by trial and error
but once you get that right, it isn't difficult. You need a pnuematic rivet
gun and a backrivetting plate. You set the rivet in the hole and secure it
there with rivetting tape. Then turn the work over and set the taped head
down on the backrivetting plate. Use a flush rivet driver attachment on the
rivet gun to hammer the formed head into the countersink space. If you don't
have these tools, find a guy who has built an RV6, 7, or 8 and ask him about
the trailing edge rivets in his rudder. They are done exactly this way.
Hope that helps,
