I bought a Chicago Pneumatics 3000lb rivet squeezer with 4 yokes for $375 off of eBay!! Tested it out yesterday and it worked just fine, although I will still need all the dies etc in order to place some rivets.
Today, John Raffensparger, the local EAA tech counselor brought me some rivets and scrap metal to practice with. I used the air hammer, and bucking bars I recently purchased from John to try my hand at a few rivets. I didn’t have a proper clamp or vice, so it wasn’t a very professional setup, but I was still able to place a few horrible rivets! Here’s a photo of the result. Still lots to learn and practice.
