Default Wiring: how to videos

I stumbled across a list of informational / how-to videos related to wiring that I thought some here might benefit from. Examples of what is at this site are how to braid wires to make them more manageable, some basic wire-stripping & crimping & soldering tips, intro to milspec wires, splicing wires etc etc. Also a couple on things like diodes, resistors. Some very basic ones as well eg "basic circuits" - if you've ever connected up a battery to a light globe with a couple of wires you've covered this one.

Check: http://www.heli-chair.com/videos_pub...s/2007_wiring/

Now, does anyone know of anything similar related to dimpling, countersinking & riveting?

I'm a total newbie, currently setting up workshop, acquiring tools etc, hoping to order RV-8 emp kit later this year. Particularly interested in any online tutorials including video of almost anything related to building an RV. Working my way through Dan Checkoway's site, amongst others.

Great stuff here at the VAF!!

Regards,

Darren
