A fellow Texan...Welcome Huzi. Looks like we'll be starting our build around the same time.

Re: Dimpling
Thanks very much for your comment on dimpling tools. I think the DRDT-2 is the gold standard of dimpling tools.

Re: Dimpling
Thanks for your reply Phillip. Judging from the number of dimples and their location I'll probably have to go with a C-Frame dimple.

Dimpling
Curious to know from the Sling builders the preferred tool used in dimpling the skins and ribs. Are you using a rivet squeezer, dimpling/rivet tool (referred to as wack-a-mole), or the DRDT-2 Rivet Dimpler? Still trying to figure out the best way to get the job done.

Re: Sling TSi Builder In Dallas-Fort Worth Area
Thanks vey much for the reply Aaron. Very helpful. How far along are you on the build? A good friend ordered his TSi a week back and I'll be assisting with the build. The kit won't arrive stateside until mid February so we're setting up shop now with the necessary tables, tools, and other materials....

Re: Sling TSi Builder In Dallas-Fort Worth Area
Hi Aaron, does TAF supply dimple dies with the empennage kit or is it a separate purchase from TAF?
