First Day on Bottom Skin Riveting
I didn’t get a ton of time as I thought this would take alot more time with two people. But I decided to try it myself and I got fairly good results. I’m not really happy with a couple of my rivets because it is hard for me to determine if my bucking bar is flat with the surface or not. It wasn’t a few times and it actually left a couple of marks in the skin because of it. Luckily this is the bottom side but still I want to do a better job than this. So I might have to have someone else with the rivet gun while I solely focus on bucking. I got almost all of the rear portion of the inboard skin done. As you can see from the yellow rivet tape I am still lacking a few rivets before that section is done.
