Hey,
So here's a good question for you fellow builders, I was in the process of dimpling my RV-9A vstab skin today and I had some Aircraft Spruce regular dimple and so I decided to give those a try since I don't have the spring back...
Anyway, here is a picture of the finished dimpled hole with one rivet in... rivets seems to be perfectly sitting flat in the dimple and there is no deformation of the skin...
What do you think, do you see anything wrong with using these? Is it worth to buy another set of dimple dies, and is there a big difference with the spring back? Anyone has any experience with the aircraft spruce dimples?
Thanks
