Still learning, I do have some preliminary lessons, but have to elaborate on those.
Annotate |
De-blue before writing on parts (use Sharpie) |
Write part orientation (Left/Right/Top/Bottom) and relation to others |
|
Air Tools |
CHECK air pressure |
Drill |
Double CHECK the diameter |
Use foam underlayer while drilling |
|
Use template to guide drilling stress relief notches |
|
Dimple |
Double CHECK dimpling the correct side (outside is flush) |
Counter-Sink |
Pilot must go through hole and have space to pierce through |
Fasten the ring on the cage |
|
Do NOT push too hard, be gentle |
|
Prime |
Degrease before prime |
Rivet |
Cleco the parts when rivetting |
Rivet gauge should fit chop head tight (not too wide/flat) |
|
Use tape on flush rivets |
|
Look at rivet gun NOT at bucking bar |
|
Push rivet gun and bucking bar hard, Rivet softly |
|
Back Rivet CHECK stay perpendicular during rivetting (prevent dents) |
