Yes, but the mini troll that I hire to stay inside the fuselage while the
clecos are being inserted in the fuse-join procedure would be really happy
for the extra hazard pay for the bumps, blood splatter and bruises he may
aquire for doing that job :O

Guys, 

You can also use a small washer to prevent the cleco from pulling through
the fiberglass.  Just be sure to grease it and the cleco well or you'll play
heck getting them out again ;^)

Fred: I have a number of holes that have pulled thru already that will need
the procedure. Will have to remember to use a proper-size drill bit to look
for ones that are close to failing, to prevent 'gotchyas' during the
procedure.
