I trying to rivet the top angle piece on to the flap bracket and rib and my offset rivet set and rivet gun won't fit between the ribs for the center flap bracket. What did yous guys do?
I'm not sure if that yoke reached the rivets in the angle; I might have used a 3 inch. I only needed to buck the rivet in the corner. The yoke goes through the hole before attaching the squeezer.
Just buy a stubbier offset rivet set--I think mine is a single offset that is about 3 inches long. They cost about $5.00 from Aircraft Spruce. I think it is this one (if our shanks are 0.401):
I used the short single offset rivet set like steve mentions. It works great, and I'm glad I got it for other places too. Its easier to control than the big double offset.
And plenty of air pressure on the rivet gun. I had a lot of trouble with my first wing, but cranked it up (more than my usual for that size rivet) on the second and it went much smoother.
