Time for dimpling
Oh boy, I get to rant and rave again about dimpling! Number 1 - You don't need a dimpling table, just get some 4 inch pieces of foam to hold the skin where you want it and slide the C Frame dimpler where you need it. Too many times, I've seen guys build an elaborate table top with a little hole in the middle for the bottom dimple to pop through and they end up putting a dip in the skin because the sheet aluminum goes down into the hole in the table when they whack the dimple. Doh! Number 2 - One solid whack is all you need for each dimple. If you whack a single dimple multiple times, you get a dip around the dimple in the skin. If you're not sure what will happen with the sheet your dimpling, get a practice sheet that is the same thickness from the tailkit practice packet and try it out first. Yeah I know, I'm a grumpy old fart, jes' ask my wife.
