I'm building the lightbox, and I am having trouble understanding the flange yoke for the pneumatic squeezer.
In the attachments, picture #1 has the shop side of the flat set on the ram, which is great because it causes the shop end to meet up with the rivet, allowing me to keep the flat set in contact with the factory side. But in this setup the hook of the flange yoke is useless. It doesn't hook over the flange.
In picture #2 I swapped the heads so the hook part of the yoke hooks over the flange on the shop end. But in this setup it is much more difficult to set these rivets. The flat set is on the moving ram, and it is difficult to keep the flat set in steady contact with the factory end while the ram is moving.
It seems inverted, as if the "hook" part of the yoke should be on the bottom so it can hook over the flange on the shop side. What am I missing?
