Riveter
I bought this riveter which is not ready to use. Tried to use the largest rivet and it would not cut. Then took it apart , it would not work, a waste of money

    Only able to use it for one rivet as the unit won't release the pin. The riveter worked fine for applying the rivet but I can't remove the rivet pin without taking the unit apart and I refuse to have to take the riveter apart after every rivet. I'll be returning it later today. Needs a design change to allow the expended pins to be released from the riveter.

      Performed flawlessly
      So far I've ran about a box of rivets through this riveter on a weekend project. It has done a great job only failing to shear one rivet (which could be my own fault because I loaded a bent rivet). It is light in weight and takes up no more space than typical pliers in a tool pouch or pants pocket. The angled head also make ot a great candidate for difficult reaches and tight quarters. I used it to set a rivet through a piece of scrap roofing metal to try it out. It had absolutely zero problem. I tried again, joining 2 pieces of stove pipe and again it performed flawlessly. Bigger jobs may require a heftier tool but, for small metal joining around the house or shop, it can't be beat.

                Works for fastening metal
                Great for joining 2 pieces of metal together but doesn’t cut the end of the rivet off

                  The tool works really good for what I needed it for. However, it was missing the clip that keeps the handles together when not in use. I really needed it fast as it used in commercial laundromat to replace broken door catch on the dryers. I really didn’t have to order a replacement.
