Getting ready to skin my car with aluminum sheets. I've never done much with rivets except a few pop rivets.
I bought a nice long-handle riveter that should allow me to get good leverage and control.
Question is this - I've seen in old pics of guys assembling planes that they will insert these temporary rivet things in the holes they've drilled to keep the alignment of the panel while they go on to drill other holes. No idea what those are called or if I should look into getting some. [S
Anyone know about those?
