I really did try to figure this out myself, but...



The rudder is the first sub-assembly to use AD-41 and CS4-4 pulled rivets.



Both get drilled to #30, I presume?



And do you countersink, dimple, or both for the CS4?  120 degrees?



Anyone have an online source for this info?  (I didn't find in mil-spec or 

other google attempts)



Thanks, Carter

Yes, #30... and CS4-4 are dimpled (or countersunk, depending on material

thickness)... Using your regular #30 dimple die set will work.

One other suggestion since you are just getting started with some of the pop

rivets.  I bought a pneumatic rivet puller from Harbor Freight and I have no

doubt it saved my hands, especially on the fuselage floorboards.  It's the

same gun sold by lots of folks for a whole lot more money, if you watch for

it, Harbor Freight often has them on sale for about $19 if I remember right.

While you're at HF, pick up one of their elcheapo swivel head pullers, 

too. If you're building RV-x fuel tanks, you will need to grind off 

about 40% of the puller snout & it's nowhere nearly as painful to 

destroy a $5 tool. And, it will still work to pull rivets in places no 

other puller can reach, using the swivel head.
