Re: Chuck and Ryan's Build Tips
More Riveting Information
This is a ridiculously little tip.
When pulling the Cherry Max rivets on the aft spar reinforcement strip the rivet puller would occasionally want to ‘bounce’ and contact the spar reinforcement strip. To protect the reinforcement strip from an errant ‘scratch’ a large fender washer was placed over the rivet when it was being pulled. No more scratches.

The same trick was used to protect the forward skins while riveting the stainless-steel rivets
