OK... So I'm still a newbie... I searched the forum for questions of this nature but didn't find exactly what I was looking for. Pictures speak louder than words. So look at this...
Does the left rivet need to be replaced? I know the picture isn't that great. And it sort of exaggerates things due to the angle and lighting. Case in point, the rivet on the right is nice and flush. Most of my rivets are flush, but I can feel this one protruding slightly if I swipe across it with my fingertip.
Back in the old wood-working days I used my fingers to find imperfections that the eyes couldn't discern. I'm somewhat inclined to drill this out and replace it. But I can be overly analytical sometimes, and I don't want to screw-up an "OK" rivet if it's not necessary. Oh, and this is on the bottom side of the H. Stab. Not that that makes any difference.
Thanks,
