Ok,
I drove a couple bad rivets... drilled them out and the next two I drove were worse... then I got a figure 8 and a big hole now...
you can see more at my build log:

I did a search here and found this thread:
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=30140&highlight=bad+rivet
I've ordered some AD5 rivets from spruce, so I could just drill them to take the AD5 rivets... but I'm thinking about just drilling a couple new #30's two rivet diameters out from the existing mess and putting a third equadistant between the two mishapen holes.
If I do latter should I try and fill the mishappen holes or just let them sit?
Any advice is appreciated.
Tom
