[quote=dmgbear55]Most of the rivets in the mast are Monel, but there are a few that are aluminum, like to attach the cap and base. Those rivets do not see any significant loading and simply retain the castings. The first order of Monel rivets showed up today, a mere $100 worth of them and that is just the first installment. I haven't counted all the others I have now drilled out. I should have another video together shortly. At that point I will start a new thread in the Technical section. I am having lots of fun sorting out the best, most practical way to refinish all this aluminum in a reasonably safe and environmentally friendly way. Not an easy thing with aluminum.[/quote]
