Dale, I am resigned to the fact that I will have about as much in tools as I do airplane.

Good stuff, thanks!

Also, I am going to slow down. I am going to take a fundamentals of building class on the 14th. I am also ordering the 4 piece tungsten bucking bar set today.

My understanding was if the shop head won’t fit it is over driven?? These are all close. It “could” be that the rivet called out is too long. However, the instructions specifically state that the -6 rivet is correct. ETA: yes, I have it clamped in the vice using wood spacers to protect the piece.

I run a Ford and Honda service department. If any of my employees said something like that, they would be leaving permanently. You should get what you ask for, further, you should not pay for the other work, if it was in fact done.

According to the gauge, those are about right. I initially bucked all 6. I squeezed the 3 I replaced. I have the Cleaveland Main Squeeze.

This is better, but still not great.

You know, I have always been pretty mechanically inclined. I have good hand/eye coordination. I am a decent carpenter and I can repair almost anything. BUT..........I can’t rivet for ****. This sucks.

I am just having so much trouble starting! I wasn’t nearly as prepared as I thought. I have a friend in town here building a -12. He is finishing, so he is about half done ....lol

Yeah, you’re right, it’s a 12. I’m figuring 5 years.

Paging @DaleB, don’t you fly a -9A? Didn’t you also build it?

IFR=on the thousand VFR=on the thousand +500 AVR(avian flight rules)= on the thousand - 200. He was where he was supposed to be. He probably reported you, you file a nasa report? I hope you did.

I think the involuntary hospitalization and history of autism are the hold ups rather than being transgendered. Good luck to you OP, I hope you can get your medical.

BZ!

So do I Rob.

All usable organs donated. Cremate the rest. No one gets to keep any of my remains, crematory to dispose. No funeral or visitation. At some point in the future when appropriate, everyone can gather up, have a beer and talk about how much of an a$$ i was. Money put aside and it’s in my will.

I love my DC’s. Try some on and make up your own mind.

Very sorry Gary, I don’t have any words that would help other than to give my condolences.

Welcome to the asylum. Feel free to ask a lot of questions, you may not get the right answer, but you will get plenty of wrong ones to choose from.
