[@dennismelville7532]

[@mh2739]

I use that tool to set tubular rivets that are used on the mid year corvettes

[@TheMick26]

Hey Kyle. Cool riveter.👌 Awesome to see another You Need This Tool video. I used to watch 'em every Friday after work and my daughters' ears would perk up during the intro.😁 Now, one is in college and the other is in the 10th grade. Listen to this ol' fool when he tells you, we appreciate what you do and don't blink because those younguns grow up too fast. Y'all have a great weekend!👊

[@Thefabforums]

Thanks man

There are different versions of this tool. There are hand hydraulic versions, air powered versions and electric versions. Those can compress larger rivets, and aren’t tiring. Good for when you’ve got a lot of rivets to do, in a business with a lot of sheet metal work. But if you think this manual version is expensive, think again. The others can cost over $2,000 depending on the capacity. But a tool is a tool. If you need it to make money with, and it lasts for many years, it’s still cheap.

[@RunFast64]

Excellent tool. Every aircraft builder needs one period.

[@billvojtech5686]

I do leather work and I like to use solid copper rivets, but I don't like using a hammer to set them, (too noisy in an apartment). I saw this tool online, but there was no demo. Found you on KZbin. Thanks for the demo. I'll probably buy the tool.

[@dennisyoung4631]

“Now who wants to Buck?” (Driving solid *hot* rivets) Yes, and I *DO* want this tool!

[@EDWARDTREVEY]

Dude you must have the "Ever Mans Dream Tool Box" you never cease to amaze with all the stuff you have....

[@Thefabforums]

lol...im sure. I do have a lot

[@INFIDEL82AA]

Love your videos, Man! Get to learn a lot about some really cool and very useful tools for metal work. Thank you!

[@williamgeorge7160]

That's a rivet squeeze the jaws are called rivet sets. Common sets are #3,#4,#5 and you can get flush sets and dimple dies for flush rivets. Don't use air hammers to shoot rivets get a proper rivet gun 2x,3x a or 4x that's how they drive.

[@curtisfisher4852]

Ive built one that you put between the bench vise and clamps down for bombers seats and panels interiors

[@LoomisTook]

Thanks I've been looking for a tool to do this nicely.

[@ellswortheric]

I would recommend a video on how to determine what length rivet you need. They have gauges but not for solids. The half hollow rivet is called a hollow tail rivet if people were wondering.

[@Thefabforums]

thanks

Kyle, great to hear from you again ! Love the tool show's ! Keep them coming , thanks !

[@Thefabforums]

thanks

[@JOEGGGJOE]

That’s a nice tool.

[@alexmcconnell1413]

What size semi tubular rivets were you using in the video? They were stainless correct? The reason I ask is the ATS website says it works on rivets up to 5/32” aluminum or 1/8” steel?

[@garyparker2969]

Cooolll Tool 4 This Friday Foool, God Bless All

[@Thefabforums]

[@theTIVANshow]

Funny I was just looking around for a tool like that ! Thanks

[@Thefabforums]

[@MrTimdtoolman1]

I do need this tool. Thanks for sharing Kyle, I wondered how those type rivets were compressed.

[@elonprince9868]

I guess it's quite off topic but does anyone know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?

Brass rivets look good against aluminum panels

[@simplistic_nick468]

Good Ol' C squeeze. Use these all the time on helicopters

[@Thefabforums]

nice

[@anthonymontoya6950]

Hello I was wondering if this will work for self piercing rivets for body sheet panels? I am doing the raptor bedside conversion on my 2020 f150 and want to use the same rivets that are in the stock bedside panels.

[@pbmachines972]

Good one dude you got me on that one

[@jaywhy225]

Welcome back !

[@JOEGGGJOE]

I was just looking at the aluminum ladders at work the other day & they have that style river in them. I was wondering what kind of rivets they were. Interesting. Ha.

[@BRO-RU]

I have this tool!)))

[@tomlancto5367]

Would this work on a window regulator roller rivet for a 1980 Vette?

[@capitolraceworks]

Is this a air capital squeezer? I'm teting to find a good one to do some 3/32 rivets

[@paullemieux3371]

Do they make 1/8 banks rivets

[@WilliamVG]

Nice unit but not big enough for automotive. Need to squeeze 5mm solid steel rivets.

[@rafatrill]

Do any of those tools do open rivets that are empty in the center like on belts or gun holsters??

[@Thefabforums]

Yeah the one I did was an open rivet

[@joeysawyer7572]

Awesome tool. How's the bibster coming along. Love the shop updates man that's going to be awesome when you're finished
