I've seen the video where those guys made their c clamp riveting tool to install rivets on jeep frames. I have been searching for a tool for this application. is there a source to purchase this tool or a similar tool that will do the 3/8's rivets? |

Here is a link to a site I saved for future use. I haven't used any of their produts yet, but their web site has been up for some years now.

Has anyone used these tools from Walck's? I had thought about having a machine shop make me the air chisel/rivet gun insert and then have them machine a dimple into a spare bucking bar.
It would produce the same results but still cheaper than those gorgeous hydraulic units I've seen made. _________________ Roger R
