Well, so much for being not so hard to do

I had to transition to somewhat of a "blind bucker" here for most of the rivets. The long reinforcement bars get in the way of seeing the rivet as it gets bucked. Since I could still see my hand on the bucking bar, I tried to keep the bar at a visible 90 degree angle on all sides while riveting. This worked well.
