Well this old mine is stumped.  On the Elevator outboard rib needs to be

dimples for room for the skin dimples.  Well the last 4 furthest aft rivits

are not dimpleable.  How does one get a dimple set in to the small space, or

did everyone just machine counter sink the holes.



This old brain needs to know.



Thanks

John,

  

 I did it by making a dimple 'receiver' out of a piece of mild steel I had laying around (1/4" or so thick).  I drilled a hole with a #40 drill, then countersunk it so it to form the female side of the dimple set.  I clamped it securely to my bench (hanging over the edge), then slipped the skin over it for dimpling.  I left the male side of the dimpler on the rod that came with my C-arm dimpler, and rapped it with my rubber mallet.  Worked just fine, now I have the tool for other tight spots that I'm sure I'll see.

I used a vise grip dimpler from Avery Tools.  As I recall, I had to grind

down the end of it to fit close enough to the rib.
