I set up my microstop last night but decided I was tired and it would be better to start the actual machining first thing today. Sadly, I guess I'm not a morning person. I tested my first line of countersinks and saw daylight between the skin, so progressively went deeper until I concluded that it would never sit flush. "Then" I did some searching and found that this may be a familiar story for many of you.
Anyway, looks like I'm about .010 too deep on the rear spar. I'm guessing that means a call to Vans in the next few days for some new parts. Bummer.
Anybody DRDT-2 dimple the spars? Alternatively, if I machine c'sink again, is it generally accepted about 3 clicks past flush? (That seems to be what I measure dropping a rivet into the female dimple die.)
