Nice! I'm hoping to get there myself this weekend - I've got 3 days all to myself, and finished my wings last night. I've got all the bulkheads built and I'm at the point of assembling into larger pieces.
It goes pretty fast Greg, I solo bucked every rivet no problem...
Don,
When you get the floor pan there are some rivets in the middle that you can't buck yourself, unless you have VERY long arms. The same goes for dimpling. I had to use my pop-rivet dimple dies on the holes in the very middle of the skin as it was just too big for my C-frame.
On the positive side, you can stand the center section up on end to simplify the riveting.
Keep pounding, you are making good progress!
Thirteen days from start to finish, working a few hours every day.
Today is my builder number day - 90709 - and I am not finished with my project. I always joked since I started in 2003 that I hope I would be finished before my builder number became the date. Oh well, I am trying to finish up my slider canopy:
I think I see some light at the end of the tunnel...
Look out Smitty, I am catching up. You gotta hurry so when I have a problem I can check your site out, lol.Hey Tony!! It's a race. Gentleman, start your compressors!!
