When dimpling the trailing edge stiffener hole, despite being careful to position the elevator as level as possible in the C-Frame, there was a little distortion around the holes, mostly evident on only one hole. I opted not to use the pop rivet dimple die because it tends to enlarge the holes.
Any ideas as to how I can correct this distortion? Should I attempt to hit it again in the die? Also, this is a troubled location for cracking. Should I be concerned with this? It may flatten out when I rivet the stiffener.
Thanks!
