This is my second RV, the first being an RV-7A first flown in 2005 and sold in 2012.

Final drilled the holes for the LP4-3 rivets.  I used these little rivet hole finders.  They fit into the existing rivet hole.  You lay the undrilled angle and cleco the part in place.  A little tap on top of the hole finder and it marks the exact location of the rivet hole with a little punch.

Here’s the little hole finder in place before clecoing the angle in place.

Here’s the little mark it leaves.  I checked and I will have enough rivet clearance even though I hogged out quite a bit.

Angles riveted in place.  I primered the bottom of the angle as well.
