now i know why people take the mick out of riveting as being a bit boring. an i had an air hydraulic one, cant imagine how most of you guys all go on with hand riveters i really dont.

pah,some glue and 1 in each corner

lol, my ass will be close enough to the road as it is, i dont want to be sitting on it at 100mph

The only advantage I found is that you don't need to buy nut crackers at Xmas

That many rivets necessary?

If I was you I'd have put another one in that front corner, you can't be too careful .

This number of rivets is quite normal.
Have a look at the riveting on La Bala and Kimini.
They look big however. Bigger than the ones I've seen until now.

Sure looks good - like a fighter jet!

Nice! "Ground control to Suparuss... Prepare orbiter for re-entry..."

Seriously tho, excellent work.
