Default How do you make rivets?

Hi Bud. Thanks a lot for your oppinion. You can be sure that it is a work of love. Me and my father are doing this plane with so much dedication that we are affraid to fly it, and because of this I am changing the engine to an OS 120 Surpass III, cause I am afraid that the Saito 91 donīt have sufficient power to move this 13.5 lbs cessna and if it crashes because of this I would be really mad!!!! We spent so many hours just in the finishings (painting, riveting, interiors, exteriors details, etc) that I think it will look really cool and, major of all, will look like a real cessna 182.

Joe: I didnīt mix any water in the glue and there are only a few rivets where what you describe happened, but I couldnīt do nothing to prevent it. With the paint that doesnīt even notice and they all look cool.

Thanks to all.
