Here is a webinar from EAA that best describes it's use http://bcove.me/9pmggx7h
It can also be used later for dimpling your leading edge wing skins.
Here is a page from my web site showing it in use on my spars http://www.onexmike.org/spar--inboard.html
Hope this helps.

Dan,

My EAA tech counselor, Henry de la Rosa, is coming by tomorrow, Wednesday, at about noon for an inspection. He would be a good guy for you to meet, so if you're around give me a call, posted my phone on the previous post.

how much does a c frame and a rivet gun cost. i don't have either. also other things you need for buck riveting. have to weigh that cost against them doing the spar.

No problem Dan. I won't be around for the weekend, but if you want to come over after work I'll throw in a free beer for the effort.

Anyway, see you sometime soon and hope you get going on that Onex. I've already started thinking about building one of those next.
