712 Bulkhead rivets
Hello - hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.
I'm looking for advice/tricks on how to rivet the bottom holes on the 712 fuselage bulkhead, in particular the ones with the red circles. The tie-down ring plate gets in the way of my bucking bar, and there's not enough room to angle around in there. Any thoughts/suggestions??

I'd use a tungsten bucking bar on its edge.

Take your time on those Tom and use what Miles suggests. I didn't and those two rivets are visible. Painter will fix it  |
