Hey folks,

Upon rolling and riveting the leading edge of my RV-8 Rudder, the skins, on each side now kind of flex a little when you push on certain spots.

Hard to describe, it's kind of like an aluminum can as you push on it and it springs into one position and pops back out.

I have to think others have seen this. Is there a fix or do I build a whole new rudder?

Thanks for any fixes or suggestions

Many call it "Oil Canning" and there is lots of discussion here about it. Mine does it and so do most. Keep on building!
