Still have a bunch of cleco's in the basement, but they don't get much use on motorsickles. Did all kinds of patches, doublers and light fabrication on aircraft many years ago. Hated Fairchild F27's (twin high wing turboprops), that plane had the thinnest aluminum structure I ever worked on, really easy to damage. Jets were much sturdier. Liked Douglas best for sheet metal work, didn't use ice box rivets like Boeing did.

Had to override engineering today and explain to them that I will not be installing external doublers for antennas. I told them never to draw external doublers again.
