Almost to the degree of using them, throwing them away, and still be bucks ahead.

Andy,
Thanks. I just discovered there is a Harbor Freight in Minneapolis. I bought a pneu/hydraulic blind riveter there on Saturday. $33.00. Works like a champ!
I saw the same thing on eBay for $47.

What I'm looking for to do the next step is a regular rivet gun, for solid rivets, with good throttle control. I have an impact hammer, but I think it would get away from me and hammer through the skins before I got the first rivet in place.
