Rivnut vs Anchor Nut: Being picky

[Ted Waltman]

I'm going to put one of those sets of cones and rope barriers about 20' away
from my plane when it's parked. That way no one can see the little "issues"
that I know are there. <grin>.

Actually, Ralph's suggestion of the clip on Tinnerman nut is better still.
Leaves a gap of 10 thou or so, but you've got to be awfully picky to notice.

You're right Alan, there are other options. Slightly faster and less
expensive to put in a rivnut would be my only response. There is a new
Cherry brand anchor nut that I saw on-line that is a single pull-rivet
installation. I might order some of those to try them.

Why not use an anchor nut (e.g. A6195-6Z-1D)?

I just uploaded two pictures of access covers that I have where they have
been dimpled for rivnuts. I've looked all over the web and can't find any
tool that creates these large dimples for rivnuts. Has anyone on the list
seen such a tool to create these rivnut dimples or is this some totally
custom deal that someone made?

The pics are in area 123 S/M Miscellaneous.

Thanks in advance...

Ted
