I hate making rookie mistakes. Started the aft top skin on my 9A. Decided to to try back-riveting the skins. The SECOND rivet came out ugly. In drilling it out, I ovaled the hole through the longeron. I pre-squeezed the new rivet before putting it in. Results are not perfect, but I don't want to mess with it anymore. I know it's only one rivet, but I'd like a little reassurance it'll be OK considering it the second rivet from the beginning of the skin and the oval hole in the longeron. Or anyone got a couple of 4-6 OOPS rivets they can spare? Thanks.
