March 31, 2008 - Rivet Spinner Nutplates |
||||||
| It was easy enough to take the front mounting plate off so I could rivet on the six nutplates. | ||||||
|
||||||
| I wonder how many nutplates I've installed on this plane. | ||||||
|
||||||
|
All
done.
|
||||||
|
||||||
| Countersunk the spinner. | ||||||
|
||||||
|
I just went with stock, using the
countersunk washers provided in the
kit.
|
||||||
|
||||||
| After countersinking the six forward holes. | ||||||
|
||||||
| I made a half-hearted effort to install the rear nutplates with the aft mounting plate still on. But it was pretty obvious that I'd need to remove the prop so I could take off the mounting plate. | ||||||
|
||||||
| I was able to do a much nicer job with the mounting plate in the vise. | ||||||
|
||||||
|
All
done.
