Listers,
Looks like I have messed up one of the dimples in a skin for the
fuel tank. The results are that the dimple hole is elongated and has a
sharp edge on one side. Are there any recommendation as to how best to
care for this problem? Should I file the sharp edge and give it a
rounded shape? Should I drill out and dimple for an AN426AD4-4 rivet?
**Any other thoughts?

If it's not too awful ugly, I'd drill it oversized and
use an AN4 rivet. That can take care of it well if
it's not huge.
