Question for the experts.

I'm just starting to dimple my horiz stab skins (RV-7), and I'm wondering how the experienced among us dimpled the holes closest to the leading edges.

Do you pry the surfaces apart, and use the c-frame? Or, do you get a better result using the pop-rivet or hex-head dimpler?

All suggestions and advice are welcome and appreciated.

You'll get statisfied results with pop-rivet dimpler. And if you would just follow instructions, you would be already left that stage of the building behing a long time ago...

Pop rivet dimpler, worked great for me.

I used the c-frame. But for the Elevators you'll have to use the pop...
