Rear Wing Spar Riveting

December 10, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

This evening I tackled riveting the rear wing spars which was a really straightforward job.

Clamping some wood blocks to the workbench allowed me to get the rear spar in a vertical position where I could early rivet with the gun and bucking bar.

Riveting went well with only one rivet needing to be drilled out and replaced.

And here’s the final producted. Super happy with how this turned out!

Please comment. I love to hear from my readers.  Thanks again for coming along for this ride, you make my work worthwhile.
