Remy and I completed another practice project. This one had us actually laying out rivets, drilling, countersinking, dimpling, de-burring, and riveting. After some good advice from my friends Jared and Joe, we made some adjustments to how we were holding the rivet gun and adjusted the air pressure to the gun. Way better results this time than on the last project. We’re learning so much. One more practice project to go and then on to the vertical stabilizer!
I also got to go flying with My buddy Jared in his RV-14 today. Amazing airplane. Thanks to Jared for the flight and all the good advice! I hope my plane looks and flies as well as his.
