Air hydraulic riveter ($30) COUPON**

**Admittedly
One has to have a Harbour Freight retail store handy.
The quality may be suspect.

Hope this post is in good taste, maybe others have no/low budgets.

$29.99 Air hydraulic riveter

Powerful, durable, high speed production tool sets rivets up to 3/16''. Air relief valve prevents overloading for long life. Includes 4 nosepieces for rivet diameters 3/16'', 5/32'', 1/8'', 3/32''.

I'm going to get one after I post this - missed their last sale on them

I've had only a few problems with mine that were fixed by a quick adjustment. Pulled over 1000 rivets. Recommend it as "OK" for home use.

I have one and reccommend it for anyone who plans to put in more then 10 rivets ever. What a blessing over a hand rivet gun.!!!
