RV-9A: Project Entry

Let the fun begin!
I riveted the HS-902 spars, the HS-907 spar doubler and the HS-908 angles together using my new Avery Pneumatic Rivet Squeezer. A lot of other RV builders told me to go ahead and spend the money for the rivet squeezer. I am glad I did, this squeezer does a professional job and every rivet is exactly the same. It takes a while to get the gap set just right, but after you do, it's rivet city.
