|

Hello all,
I am trying to finish up dimpling all my elevator parts and have two problem
areas. The last three holes in the elevator tip rib flange at the trailing
edge are so close to the opposite flange there is no room to get in there.
Are these three holes best to countersink even know the rib skin is thin?
Lastly, the rear elevator spar is so narrow that again my pnuematic dimpler
present a problem as the only way to get the male die to get into its hole
is to carefully get the male dimple to start to move, then line it up and
then go for it. Maybe I could do this with one hole but not the 200 or so,
this is suicide. I do not own a hand squezer/rivetter. Any suggestions
short of purchasing the manual dimpler?
THANKS,
John G. #40409

Avery has Vice grip dimplers for tight areas. There is also a pop rivet
dimple tool, that you can use without the nail, and squeeze them with a
pair of pliers

For the ellevator use a pop rivet dimpler which you will use in several
other places and no hand squeezer???? Borrow one!

John,
� I just finished those dimples myself.� For the rear spar I did exactly what you indicated below and went VERY slow with it.� Didn't miss on any of the holes.� For the last holes in that rib I went to Home Depot and picked up a 1" C clamp.� I plan on using my close-quarters dies with the C clamp instead of the�pop rivet gun.� I haven't done it yet, but I figure it will work out pretty well.� Another option is the vice-grip dimplers that Avery has or the tight fit dimpling tool from Cleaveland.� I just didn't want to wait for another tool to ship, which is why I didn't go with either of these solutions.

Thanks for the direction, I placed the Avery order already. Too many holes
on the rear spar to wing it!
