Default Floor

I decided to seal the floor in place first and then put the rivets in once the sealant had gone off. That way I am not trying to set 40 rivets in a short time.

Seems to have worked OK. I have started setting the rivets but I found my ancient spiralux rivet gun wasn't really up to the job (well it is 25 yrs old) and so I have ordered a new industrial strength one (Gesipa) to finish off the first fllor pan and to fit the second.

I would recomend sealing the floors in first then doing the rivets - but I would also recomend the use of less sealer then I used! On the plus side at least it will be watertight.
