Quick question for group... I'm on the fun little spot where VS 702, 704 & 705 all meet. I decided to try my hand at the rivet gun since I couldnt get the squeezer in there. That may have been a mistake as even that is a tight fit...
Long story short I put a couple not so good looking rivets in with both a smily on the manufactured head and a slightly sloppy shop head. After letting that sit while prepping the skin. I decided that while they may be good I really didnt like how they looked and the fact that they would be fairly visible as 3 of the few rivets that are seen after the assembly is done. I drilled one of the 2 culprits out and of course enlarged the hole a bit.
I think now tha I may leave the others alone as this is likely a case of better left in than drilled out. Now that this is too large what kind of oops rivet do I use? It isnt a flush rivet and is a #40 so I need something larger in diameter. Is it possible to use one pop rivet here instead?
Thanks all...
