What have others used for a rivet set to get the rivets on the fuse 

skins next to the spar carry through in the attached pic?  I don't have 

a swivel flush set, but maybe that would work?



Thanks,

I believe I'd back-shoot those...

The shop side of these are inside the side channel, so they can't be 

back shot.  The forward ones can, but not the aft side.

I used http://www.yardstore.com/browse.cfm/4,3673.html



The face is curved enough to give you room for the rivet gun and still 

keep it flat on the rivet.

Thanks for the link.  For some reason the Yard Store slipped my mind.



I'm wondering if I'd get additional use out of a flush "C" set which 

also seems like it would do the job.

I worried about those rivets and put them off for a while, as well as the rivets around the rear spar attach. Turned out though that my Avery swivel flush set worked fine. I pushed the rubber guard up against the spar, and there was just enough room to get good meat on the rivet, if that makes sense.

Just an update for those not to the fuse side skins yet.  I actually 

went with the 7 1/2 inch version of what PJ linked below just to make 

sure I cleared the spar with the rivet gun.

http://www.yardstore.com/browse.cfm/4,3741.html

This worked great for the fuse side skins next to the spar.  I wish I 

had this set when doing the bottom wing skins next to the flap attach 

also.  One note, that is similar for other longer rivet sets.  It takes 

quite a bit more pressure with the added length.  This is one of those 

places that I wished I had gotten a 3x gun instead of a 2x.

on the rivets near flap hinges and these. Already had this tool and did not want to buy another tool for just a few places. Just put masking tape over rivets to help keep it from sliding, have a helper on the other side and keep your set straight.
