Are 2 People Required for Riveting?

Most of the riveting can be done by one person.  About 4 hours total help would be enough to rivet one wing in the areas requiring two people.  Actual riveting will take less than 10% of the total build time.  If the parts are debured, dimpled, and everything clecoed together for riveting, a second person will be needed for very short periods of time on only a few skins during the project.  For many, the building project is much more enjoyable because they make it into a family project.

 

Is It Loud?

Yes the riveting is loud.  Again the actual time spent riveting is minimal but it is quite loud.
