I am fitting the bottom skins on my qb wings. The skins were about a half a hole from lining up so I aimed my shop heater at it for about 10 minuets and they fit pretty good after that. My question is, is it ok to warm the skin like that and then rivet them on. I have done this with other projects such as bus siding etc and everything was fine but the wing structure is much more frail.
Could it warp when the skin cools back off. I did not heat so hot that you could not hold your hand on it maybe up to about 85 or 90 degrees.
Thanks for any advice!
