Primed the F-711 Bulkhead and started assembly - 3.5 hours

Very small day today. I just need to prime the components before I can assemble them. I always try to get 12hrs dry time on the parts when I can as the primer can be too soft.24 hours is best. 

My priming process is a little intense. First a scotchbrite scrub, then soapy wash, then acid bath, Degrease wipe, MEK wipe and prime.

All done with priming. Now to wait for it to dry.

I waited until the late evening to start assembling. I cleco's the assembly and clamped it in the vice, and started bucking.

As I started the row at the very top (where it isn't clamped well). I slipped with the rivet set and gave the piece a small smiley. Ugh....very annoying. I managed to perform some surgery and dressed out the smiley with some scotchbrite on the dremmel to remove any sharp edges.

I then wiped the area with acetone and masked off the set rivets and re-sprayed primer. Almost like it never happened.
