Just finished all the drilling in section 29...whew, was nervous about the edge distance when drilling the upper & lower fuselage to the fit firewall weldments... with heavy use of these forums, builders websites and a call to Vans I survived...
Section 29 page 16 calls out to modify the empennage bucking bar. I never purchased this bucking bar for the empennage and was looking for input if it is really needed for the fuselage?
I have got a week or two of prep work prior to starting the riveting and was wondering if anyone had done this without the specialty bucking bar or do I need to stop being so cheap an order the tool?
