Advice-Vertical stabilizer
some of the rivets are folded over slightly..... all are within specs, but I don't like how all of them "look." Not expecting perfection, but also don't want to miss something.
Thanks |
Can you post some pics?
|
|
Not perfect but look fine as long as they are in spec .. and nobody will see them .. as long as you can live with it ;) build on!
|
hopefully that is the correct way to view the pics....arghhh!:)
|
is am using a Numatx 3500 squeezer, about 80PSI, and went reaalllyy slow when squeezing. Is there another technique to make them more uniform?
|
I don't know anything about the Numatx but mine (Cleveland Tool) has a cam in it so the last bit of travel is kind of a "snap" which really gets the shop heads looking nice once you get the hang of it.
At least you put them in the right direction, I ended up drilling a good bit of mine out to reverse .. oops .. seems like a long time ago but was just April! |
thx for the quick replies and info
|
Not familiar with that squeezer, but mine gets the best results when they are squeezed at full speed, and always use the max PSI of 90. I have an inline flow restrictor that can be adjusted also if I need to come up on it slower.
Those don't look bad, but with a little trial and error I'm sure you'll figure it out. |
You can use a C frame with the longer back riveting tool available from Cleaveland. They will all be consistent then. It was a tip from another builder and it works really nicely.
