Re: [VAC] Rivets




Yes, the rivets used on the belly pans are "pop" rivets, as you all know.  I
meant to comment on how long they seemed to be, and then I guess I confused
the issue by referring to the Olympic rivets used for repairing the visible
fasteners on the skins.

I was just wondering if the "pop" rivets loosening was a normal wear and tear
expectation, or maybe they had been replaced once already, and the holes were
elongated. 

 My mind works faster than my fingers, when I also commented on the sizes of
the Olympics.
