A video showing how you remove a pull rivet. You'll note that I allowed the drill bit to go all the way through. Some recommend you only drill to remove the head and then use a center punch to remove the rest as to not damage the hole. I did do that on some, but often the rivet would not just pop out. I didn't find that putting the drill all the way through did any damage (e.g. enlarging it).
And the top skin fits perfectly and it's nice and flat!
NEXT SESSIONS:
- Rivet landing light pieces.
- Bolt down jigs after checking level again.
- Flip assembly.
- Test fit of bottom skins (don't forget stringer!) for fit and levelness.
- Test fit of pitot assembly.
- Flip assembly.
- Remove top skins and rivet ribs.
