I'm getting ready to back rivet my stiffeners to my elevator skins. I'm familiar with back riveting from the rudder. I've been thinking on how I'm going to back rivet the rivets near the TE of the elevator since they're right near the bend. How have others done this? Do you rivet with the C-Frame? If so, do you still use a hammer or put the rivet gun up on the top? Do you put the MFG head of the rivet down on the anvil or facing up to the set on the piston? The MFG head facing up would make more sense from the standpoint of having to peel the skins open less, but I can't see how this wouldn't "push" the rivet out of the hole. Do people just buck way up in there?
