I have six holes in my project roof that I need to patch. The roof is a
circa-SII 109 with the ribbing. All the holes are drilled through the ribs.
Four are about 3/16 inch diameter and very clean, the other two about 5/16
inch and look like stretched 1/4 inch originals (rib also dimpled from the
pilot on a carriage bolt). Can I fill them with some sort of brazing material
and a torch?
Also, the front 1/3 of the rain gutter has detached (rivets popped). So, I'd
like to fully remove the gutter piece and get everything thoroughly cleaned,
regalvanized if needed, then reassembled. Is it SOP to measure the holes after
drilling the old rivets out, to determine the correct size replacement rivet?
It now sitting out in the rain for a free washing. Then I'll begin to gather
the needed bits and get moving on my first riveting adventure...
