Rivet-Gun

A week’s sailing on a small boat has given me some insight on what works and what doesn’t. In general, enough stuff worked most of the time to keep the shiny part up and dark side down. Anything beyond that is bonus.

One thing I learned is to keep closer attention on the boat’s rigging. A trailer sailer is a compromise. It has to be easy enough to set up the mast and rigging for a day sail, but also has to hold up to weeks on the water. The rigging loosened up a bit and that’s something I should have caught earlier. I didn’t notice it until pop rivets snapped out of the base of the mast. Fortunately, a pop rivet gun and rivets are part of the boat’s tool kit. It was only a half hour repair to replace the rivets and tighten the rigging. It never should have gotten to that point.

One very useful thing in our took kit was gorilla tape. It’s duck tape’s stronger cousin. We used it from everything to minor wiring repairs to holding a headlamp over the compass for night sailing.

The new solar panel worked pretty good, but there were a couple of glitches. During a hectic time on the water, the spare anchor got tangled in the solar panel wire and pulled it apart. To prevent that in the future, the wire will run completely inside the boat and clear from cargo in the hold.

During the last night out, the boat’s battery died. Good thing it was the last day. We need that battery to run the anchor light. I have sleep apnea and run my c-pap machine off the battery, so it’s a medical issue too.

That’s about the only things that caused problems -minor stuff in the big scheme of things. Most things went well. Anything that broke could be fixed or worked around.

Now all we have to do is pick out our next sailing destination.

Virtually all aircraft rivet guns are clones of the original Chicago Pneumatic ones (design patents ran out years ago) Many of the brands are so close of a copy that parts interchange. However, the cheaper ones are just that, cheaper, they don't have the power, and they don't have the smooth throttle of the genuine CP. I have a 3x CP and a 2x Cleco (old one made byCleco when it was owned by Reed Roller Bit Co in the '50's, but it was brand new, old stock when I bought it). Cleco is now owned by Cooper and is part of the Apex Group (Danaher/Cooper) and I'm not sure if they still make aircraft rivet guns.

The CP is a smooth gun, and I love the feel, heft and trigger on the Cleco.

I have an off brand 4x at work, and it is weak and the trigger sucks. I use it mostly as a screwknocker to remove screws with.

There is nothing worse than a poor trigger on a rivet gun.

Airplanes are of course the main feature visible to anyone visiting the Vintage Wings hangar. No less permanent a fixture however are the large tool chests scattered here and there amongst the airplanes in various stages of disrobement. After all how are you going to efficiently safety your castle nuts to within AC 43.13 standards of 8-10 turns per inch without your lockwire pliers? How are you supposed to properly gauge sheetmetal without your calipers? As the saying goes, an AME is only as good as his or her tools (disclaimer: this may be true at other organizations, but here at Vintage Wings, our crew is so good they could wrestle these beasts with their bare hands).

This update was supposed to be in 2 parts. The first part was supposed to be doing some maintenance to the boat, such as fixing some broken rivets. The second part was supposed to be taking the boat out on the river to make sure is running ok, and to to use a GPS to see how fast the boat can travel down the river.

Well, the boat never made it to the river.

The front of the boat has a deck that is held in place with rivets. Over the years of walking on the deck the rivets have slowly pulled lose or broken.

Replacing the rivets

Use a drill bit the size of the rivet, drill through the middle of the rivet, the head should come loose.

Use a punch or drift pen to drive out the middle of the rivet.

If the rivet does not want to drive out, use the drill to drill it out.

Insert new rivet into the hole.

Use a rivet gun to secure the rivet.

In all, 25 rivets were replaced, which took about an hour.

If you are wondering what that stuff is on the deck of the boat, that is boat carpet that has rotted and fallen off. I need to take a scarper to remove the last bit of the carpet. My son suggested taking the boat to a car wash, then using the high pressure setting to wash the rest of the carpet off.

I thought about getting a stainless steel wire wheel for my grinder to buff the last parts of the carpet off. But then again, a paint scraper might work just as good.

Why the boat did not make it to the river

The lower unit is leaking oil.

Before the boat was taken on the upcoming 100+ mile river camping trip, I wanted to put in the shop for some preventive maintenance. The water pump impeller had never been changed, the spark plugs needed to be replaced and I wanted the oil in the lower unit replaced.

While the boat was in the shop, the mechanic discovered the power pack was going bad. This might have explained why the motor had been difficult to start. After talking with the mechanic on the phone, I gave the go ahead to replace whatever needed to be replaced.

When I got the boat back, the motor would not even idle. I also noticed there was some oil on the ground below the motor. I did not think anything about the oil, I thought it was residue from the mechanic cleaning the motor.

After a closer look, it appears the oil is leaking from a water vent hole.

This really pisses me off.

Now, the boat has to go back in the shop, yet again.

I made a New Year’s resolution, probably for the first time in decades.

My resolution was to visit my mother more often. She lives about an hour away and I always seem to have an abundance of reasons for not going. Indifference was the real reason and that had to change. I decided it would motivate me more if I had a project that I could work on whenever I went to visit. The project I decided on was to clean out my father’s workshop. He died about 10 years ago and the room, really just a walk-in closet in their condo, has had little attention since then. This week I began that process. Mom sat just outside the door of the space while I reviewed things with her to ensure I didn’t throw out anything important. It’s going to be a long-term project. That space isn’t very large, but it’s packed.

As I sorted through things, I encountered tools and other miscellaneous objects I recognized that had been moved from the workshop in the house I grew up in. It brought back many, many memories and gave me a chance to reflect on my my father.

Dad was incredibly creative, a tinkerer, a handyman and a saver. Perhaps it was his upbringing in a working class family during the Depression, but he could make use out of the most unlikely things. He worked for the same screen printing company his entire life in Toronto and parts of our house were painted with leftover printing inks and paneled with leftover signboard. He could make something from nothing, like a wood lathe from an old washing machine motor and scrap metal, so he could make something for the house. He subscribed to Popular Mechanix and half of the furniture and fixtures of our house were built from plans he found in its issues. Through most of my childhood, our car was a 1958 Plymouth Plaza. It was a lemon. But that car never saw a mechanic. Dad did all the repairs himself. He even replaced the rusted bodywork with scrap metal sheeting, a pop rivet gun and body filler. To me this was normal. Every dad could do that, right?

Dad was also a servant-leader. At church he was, for years, the “head usher” (I’m now the welcome co-ordinator at my church. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree…), a member of the board and helped with whatever needed doing, whether it was painting scenery for the Christmas pageant or fixing the plumbing. But in everything, he did it simply because it needed to be done.

It wasn’t until much later that I found out that Dad was a promising artist in high school. I’ve seen sketches he did in high school and they are amazing. Unfortunately, he had to leave school early in order to support his family when his father took ill and his chance to go to art school was never realized.

My father was a man of incredible patience and supported his entire family, whatever their dreams. I wish I had half the patience he had when raising my own children.

As I get older, I frequently catch myself in a manerism or activity I saw my father do. Eerie. But I’m so grateful for what I have inherited from him: Creativity and (some) patience. I wish I were more of a hands-on person like him, but, let’s not be greedy. I’m grateful for what he has given me.

All this from a New Year’s resolution.

Why not be the first? I dare ya. Double-dare ya.

With the function of compressed air, industry these days completes all indulge in moving bulky fittings to powering easy air tools. Compressed air is a precious apparatus however may perhaps furthermore troth precisely risky as hand-me-down an dangerous manner.

If you performance as well as Compressed Air…be certain that you track these defense guidelines:

I wrote this just now as a bit of flash fiction. Tell me what you think! It's extremely rough and has not been edited, but it's my first horror scifi so I thought I'd share.

////UNSMC VESSEL "UN PROSPERITY"
MISSION LOG: DATE UNKNOWN, 7.0012 CYCLES SINCE CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURE
ENSIGN MARCUS NGERE - UNSMCID 232-191-000127, RECORDING

::LOG BEGINS::

"How long have I been out here?" That was the question which clung like an epoxy bonding agent to the forefront of
my mind. I stared out at the long hallway before me as I floated out of the dormatory ring of the ship, my stomach
churning at the onset of weightlessness, though the fact that I hadn't eaten in four cycles might have aided in this
condition.

Checking the computer junction's temporal readout between the dormatory ring and ops, I could see that seven cycles
had passed since we were hit by that... thing, causing a critical system failure, killing life support systems and
forcing a full reboot of all systems. We only had one working stasis pod. The crew elected to save me above all
the others. I had no idea how long I was out, but when the onboard computers woke me some time later, I felt like
death.

A klaxon sounded, alerting me to a fresh problem. Ring Charlie - the point of impact - had come back online.
It shouldn't have been possible, but I was curious and decided to investigate. I grabbed a tool belt and floated down
the corridor to the third ring of the ship.I opened the sealed access airlock, feeling the pressure drop slightly.
Ring Charlie had apparently only barely repressurized from it's exposure.

Realizing now that the size and scope of the damage might well still require attention, I removed the rivet gun and
repair sheet from the tool belt, hefting them both in my hands. Opening the interior door with my foot, I gingerly slid
down the ladder leading into the habitation ring. It was dim and dank, the enviornmental and lighting systems still
somewhat frazzled from the impact. I cursed a little, kicking myself for forgetting my flashlight. Regardless, I
pressed on into the twilight of the damaged ring, feeling around for an emergency light.

My boot slid as I stepped in a thick, gooey liquid. It must have been a coolant leak. I raised the rivet gun, priming
its CO2 pack and raising the aluminum repair sheet as I felt for the leaking pipe. I grabbed hold of a thick wire and
jumped slightly as it slipped away. It was somewhat sticky, pulling my hand for a distance and depositing it on a
switch. Shrugging, I flipped the switch, an illumination pod for an instrumentation panel.

There, in the pale starlight and sickly orange glow of the instrument panel was Crewman Jennings, staring me in the eye.
Strange tendrils fed into his skull and his mouth oozed a sickly green-red pus in ungodly quantities down his suit and
onto the floor. "It f-found us..." He - if he could truly be called a he anymore - sputtered as the lights in the ring
were slowly turned on in staggered succession. "J-join usss" he hissed, as the lights revealed the rest of the crew
behind him, all staring at me and revealing a writhing, loathsome organic mass plugging the impact hole.

I deposited every rivet in the gun in Jennings' face. The poor bastard went down but got right back up, shambling towards
me as I sprinted up the ladder, charging to Ring Echo - CIC - and barricading myself inside. I surveyed my surroundings:
the armory had already been nearly exhausted and bloody drag marks showed the fate of the last of the crew to have held
out.

At this point, death by exposure seems merciful. I sit here now, having barely powered on the subspace beacon. They're
beating on the door now, screaming... screaming the most horrible scream imaginable. I'm recording this log to let you
know there's no point in saving me. Avoid the UN Prosperity at all costs and send a naval vessel to burn this wreck out
of the sky. There must be no survivors. I found a Type 97 service pistol on the transmitter console with one round in
its magazine. I've racked the slide and I'm pointing at the glass. Wish me luck.

If a person is going to camp with other people, these people I met at Quartzsite are the kind to camp with.

Dome Rock Mountain near Quartzsite, Arizona

Ann and Bill came to Dome Rock from Oregon. Bill is one of those guys who can fix anything and has more than his share of common sense.

I tell him about my recalcitrant battery that refuses to come out of the little compartment of the Casita. He identifies the problem right away. The tray the battery sits on was not installed straight, causing the battery to catch on one corner. Also the wires are bundled in such a way to make it a tight fit.

Bill clips the plastic tie around the wires and wiggles the battery out to a small table where he adds the necessary distilled water. He makes sure I know the correct water level before putting the battery back in.

Bill notices my souvenir from the infamous Coyote Road (see post of September 12).

Bill and Ann's dachshund, Julie

A rivet from the outside of the shell through the kitchen surround is broken. He gets his rivet gun and some silicone and fixes it like new!

Seizing the opportune moment, I tell him I’m not completely happy with the cord that runs from the Casita to an outlet below the bumper of the PTV.

Ann and Bill's beagle, Samantha

“I forgot to tell the people at Starlight Solar to make the cord long enough for me to be able to change the position of the PTV, so my solar panel can be tilted toward the sun,” I complain. “I don’t want to take it back there for a longer cord.”

Bill quickly gives me a simple solution. “Make an extension cord, #6 or #8 gauge, and add the ends to match your plugs.”

Another why-didn’t-I-think-of-that moment that makes me wonder where my brain has gone!

Bridget on her way back to the PTV (Perfect Tow Vehicle) and the BLT (Best Little Trailer)

His wife Ann is quiet, quirky, and fun, with a childlike enthusiasm for new places and an adventuresome spirit to match. She makes lovely, stained-glass windows for the doors of rvs. Both Bill and Ann are soft-spoken and easy to be around. Their beagle, Samantha, has tender pads, and needs to wear booties in the desert. Luckily, Ann found a booth at Quartzsite that sells them. Samantha likes wearing them.

Radar was one day from being euthanized when Chuck and Geri rescued her and treated her for heartworms.

Bill, Ann, Chuck, Geri and I decide to go boondocking in the Sonoran Desert at Darby Wells Road outside Ajo. We travel down Highway 95 to Yuma and spend the night at the pond where I camped previously.

The next morning we gas up and fill tanks with propane before going east on Interstate 8 to Gila Bend. Chuck and Geri have some things to take care of so they’re a day behind us.

Bill, Ann, their two dogs, the crew, and I camp at the Painted Rock petroglyph site near Gila Bend for one night.

It’s BLM land with a camping fee of $8.00. We use our federal senior passes and pay only $4.00, and that includes the $2.00 fee to walk around the petroglyphs. We take turns dog-sitting.

Canine campers at Painted Rock: Julie, Samantha, Spike, Bridget

I try my new charcoal grill for turkey burgers (yuck) and to heat up some smoked salmon (They’re from Oregon, remember?). Ann cooks potatoes with onions (yummy) in a skillet on their camp stove and heats up some green beans. In spite of the fact that we discover the rolls for the burgers are no good due to mold, we enjoy our little cook-out together right before the sun sets.

Bridgets loves to eat.

Bridget happily skips around the picnic table after scoring half a turkey burger which flew off Bill’s plate when he tried to cut the dry, crusty patty. For once she didn’t have to wait for Spike’s leftovers!

The next morning, after breakfast, coffee, and dog walks, we break camp and tow our Casitas south to Ajo, Arizona!

Here’s a few more photos from our Quartzsite experience. I’m glad we went!

NECA has produced many figurines for the game BioShock 2; this time WE will show you the Big Daddy in Rosie version, which comes in a clamshell packaging. The statue with multiple points of articulation looks very nice, where the quality also feels good because of its weight. The details are excellent, even the smallest parts are well elaborated, so the Ultra-Deluxe is absolutely legitimate. Two accessories are included, the air tank and the Rivet gun.

This information has been deliberately plagiarised from Bill Repucci’s excellent website. I wanted to create my own set of tables so Bill’s info makes a good start and I will modify the settings to what is good for my compressor/gun combo.

Here is Bill’s info:

Suggested Operating Pressures

As I mentioned, I use different operating air pressures at the rivet gun for various different sizes of rivets and material. I put this table of information together based on my experience. Keep in mind that I use an Avery 3X rivet gun, and that your results may vary (some builders opt for a 2X gun, which may behave very differently). Also, you can vary the duration of driving the rivet to compensate for pressure in many cases. For example, instead of cranking the psi up, you can drive the rivet for a longer period of time. Anyway, here are the “baseline” settings I use for reference:

AN426 Rivets:

Rivet Type	Air Pressure	Duration
AN426AD3-3 to 3-4	34 psi	1 second
AN426AD3-4.5 to 3-5	37 psi	1 ½ seconds
AN426AD3-6 plus	40 psi	1 ½ seconds
AN426AD4-4 to 4-5	45 psi	1 second
AN426AD4-6 to 4-9	50 psi	1 ½ to 2 seconds

AN470 Rivets:

Rivet Type	Air Pressure	Duration
AN470AD4-4 to 4-5	60 psi	1 second
AN470AD4-6 to 4-7	60 psi	1 ½ seconds
AN470AD4-8 to 4-9	75 psi	1 ½ seconds
AN470AD4-9 plus	80 psi	1 ½ to 2 seconds

have always used a hand rivet gun for small projects, currently working on an Airstream trailer remodel and looking at putting in a few thousand rivets. this rivet gun is fast, just one touch of the trigger and an 1/8 x 1/4 rivet is fully engaged. 3/16 x 3/8 took two squeezes of the trigger but i could probably adjust for that and only had a few. truly one of the best tools i own as far as how little i spent versus how much time and energy i'm saving using it. i have another project coming up and can't wait to use it again.
