If the gun begins to walk, you are not holding it square on the rivet, or you have too much air pressure, or you are pulling the trigger too forcefully. The first time I tried it, it was on the outer skin of an airplane rebuild. I put the gun on the rivet and pulled the trigger all the way back, and the gun went skittering down the side of the airplane before I could stop it, leaving a row of dimples about two feet long. The boss was a bit unhappy with me for that one.
@winthore those are the clecos sticking through the hole. No way in hell holes like that would make it on an airplane, they will crack the entire piece with all of the vibration.
Those shop heads look really good, are you using tungsten bucking bar? Good job though flush rivets can be a pain sometimes, when the gun begins to walk.
Yes in school when we rivet flush head rivets are a pain to install because you have to countersink the metal and keep putting the rivet in before actually installing it to check if it's right. I will actually post a video of the aileron we made in shop. It's not made to actually go on a plain but it looks the same.
I really liked your channel and this video. If you need any help getting this video exposed I use a site called tubeviews.(net) It has really helped like 20 of my main videos get to the top in position. Its nice.
