I almost lived at Deft Kemp watching for the right machine and price... Click the Power tool page selection above for the details...</div> <bR> <div> I considered trying to form the Empennage ribs with a machinist's vise and some long metal angles... Good judgment prevailed, a metal brake was purchased, the ribs were fun to make and came out a quality product... </div> <bR> <div> There is also a Riveting page selection above that covers the tools and process that we used for the numerous riveting tasks... Provide lots of time for that built-up seat! I got tired of figuring when I counted more than a 1000 riveting operations for the seat bottom...</div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
