Apparently MIL-R-47196A (mil spec on rivet shop heads, etc.) has been
canceled and superseded by NASM47196. I have a copy of MIL-R-47196A that I stole from Gil Alexander (http://www.rvproject.com/MIL-R-47196A_MI.pdf) but I'm in search of a copy of the NASM47196 spec.

If anybody has a copy of NASM47196 that you are willing to share, can you
email it to me? (dan rvproject com)

Dan ... I'll see if I can hit up one of the mechanical guys at work for a copy.... but in general, when the govt. turned these specifications over to independent standards organizations (Aerospace Industries Association of America/National Aerospace Standard, in this case), the first version was just a re-print with a new title....

That appears to be exactly the case here.. this MIL-Spec document says to just use the new title for all references...

The technology for the type of rivets we use hasn't advanced in quite a while.... --- since the 1940's (???)

Found it

Dan... I got a copy of the NASM spec.

Unfortunately, it came from a spec. search company we use at work, and it also got copyrighted when it became an AIA specification... so I can't publish a copy.

However, I checked it line by line, and as I thought, it is an indentical copy, just with a different title.

The paragrah numbering in your PDF copy makes your version easier to read, and the pictures I created many years ago (1990?) are also easier to read....

So no changes in the re-numbering.....

Thanks Gil. I appreciate the heads-up, and I think we all owe you a beer for putting the effort into that original PDF.
