I procrastinated in putting the vent wings together after having the frames chromed. I'm learning about tubular rivets. There are three different sizes. I have the smallest ones, they came with the seals. I don't have a tool to crush them or a source for the other two sizes. I don't even know how to measure the lengths I need. I might install the airplane on the hood to be able to say I've made progress.
