Riveting tools ???

[Chrille]

Hello! Here are my low budget tools, the rivets are iron the large black ones , and the small ones are aluminium. I use a iron cylinder where I drill a small hole , as deep as the head on the rivet! This type of hammer is the best to use, small and with a flat long head head , so you can work out the mtrl .

Yuri, we need to get something like this and start watching Zubehoerkasten prices going down

Very nice photos. These are single ended hydraulic punch presses with very thin arms. The closest one comes to these are alligator riveter / squeezers.

Here is a nice Pexto foot-powered punch press, but the arms are too thick. Can't get into the small spaces of the boxes.

It will not work for your needs. The arms are too thick, and will not fit into the small openings between the dividers in the battery box. You need something like the original tools made by Heller. I am absolutely impressed with the quality and ingenuity of these war-time tools. Can't find anything like that large riveting press in the market today (and I've been looking) .

Try this one. It will do the job. Model P-24
