Sounds like the general consensus is the damaged dimple has nothing to do with the problem setting the rivet.
Looks like I'll have to resort to the Oops rivet....just not sure why. The length is definitely not to long and the hole is not too big. Plans (RV-14, page 06-05 figure #2) call for a 3.5 length in this spot. All the others have driven nicely.
Have 8 left to drive/squeeze. They're in the spots over the hinges. Not looking forward to that!
Thanks all,
Fred
