I riveted my VS today. All all it except the forward most hole at the top. I can't get the bucking bar in the gap there...how does one accomplish this??..thx in advance as usual. This weekend I should have the HS riveted together.
 
blind rivets

MK-319 BS. Order couple hundred of these. You will need them a lot.

Squeeze it

I just finished my VS as well, and I just squeezed these ones.

Documentation says: "install the remaining rivets along the rear spar and end ribs with a squeezer".Up to know, I've strictly followed the instructions and all went well (even if I do know how to drill out a rivet :D)

I'm using the Cleaveland Main Squeeze for the small rivets and it does a wonderful job. I keep the pneumatic squeezer for larger rivets.

Happy new year
