I have managed to dimple both top and bottom of all the main wing ribs including under the wing walk doubler's. I have searched the forum and it seems that on other models the builder was given the choice to dimple or machine countersink in doubler area. Does anyone know of a reason that the 14's would be different, or why the doubler area should not be dimpled. I tried dimpling 3 pieces of .025 and they seem to rivet together fine. I contacted Vans and was instructed to just press out the dimples and carry on. I am concerned that if I press out the dimples it may weaken the rib flange's around the rivets. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
