Tip: Riveting Tailcone

[westexflyboy]

After seeing some frustrated builder advertising for a "mature 8-year old with bucking bar experience," I devised a method for safely inserting my oversized body into the tailcone for riveting. I call it the "diving board" and it's mounted to my EAA workbench.

Coincidence

Funny how I just noticed this post. My dad is down for his yearly visit and we finally buttoned up the top skin on the 10 tailcone as well. We came up with a different solution - http://picasaweb.google.com/n520tx/RV10EmpennageTailcone#5249933458729614098.
