Hopefully a builder with some experience can recommend if it is OK to briefly bend the W1206V attach angles to allow the air rivet gun to sit square. I just tried grinding the head of the close space hand riveter so that it actually fits inside the attach angle without hitting the angle and that works but I am going to get carpal tunnel.
While I am asking questions. The instructions say I can repair or ignore the excess shaft depending on location. I went ahead and ground the excess flat, but the little evil guy in my head says to drill it out and redo it. The nice guy in my head says "the enemy of good is better" and that I am going to making a bigger mess trying to drill out the rivet. So would experienced builders leave the pull rivet in or drill it out.
