Thank you and well worth the investment.

Raymond you hit the head on the Rivet hehe. Yes you are right. I noticed the same thing as well after 75+ rivets on a window frames. I found punching the center first helps with the walking of the bit but it won’t stop it 100%. Also I agree with either the fluting needs to be changed or the bit itself should be removable from the thread insert. Maybe add a allen retention pin to the thread insert so the drill bit can be changed out easier and make it more cost effective when the bits have to be changed out.

@@dcdvs1583Hello, can you please point me towards the video where you show the center punch method for removing rivets? Thank you

@@Borgorl it will be on my exterior panel replacement video part 1 of 2 and I specifically talk about it in the first 2 minutes of the video

Ya I would. It works well on any rivet no matter the type of application. Depending on the amount of rivets needed to be removed, will depend on how many drill bits you will need as the bits wear out every 40-50 rivets. Very simple to use and makes the process easy if it’s your first time trying to remove rivets. Thanks for watching

Yes that would be correct, but depending on insulation install most likely you wouldn’t hear the rattle. Plus when in camp or just parked you shouldn’t hear any rattle at all.

Technically yes you could on both. The pop rivet would be as easy as it gets when removing the rivet compared to buck rivet or Olympic rivet. This tool works well keeping aligned as long as the bit cut still has a bite or sharp cutting edge. As it gets dull you will find the drill bit wanting to walk to one side of the rivet from center. Only two ways to avoid that is by either center punching the rivet prior(which kinda defeats purpose of this tool) or replace the bit about every 75 rivets to avoid walking which can become costly depending how many rivets need to be removed. I found my earlier method by center punch and regular drill works just as good if you meticulously take your time. The chisel from the side works well too and any scuff marks you make during removal will polish out if you are polishing the exterior, otherwise you will see them if it is not polished out.

@@dcdvs1583 So I suppose buying a drill bit sharpener is one way to go.

Hehe Always love new tools! Hope you and Bob are doing good. 😁

They are replaceable

Yes It will work on those rivets that are used for a guitar case

@@dcdvs1583 Awesom, many thanks!

Julie, this is what I used and can be found at Lowes. www.lowes.com/pd/General-Tools-Instruments-5-in-Center-Punch/1053205

@@dcdvs1583 Thank you very! I am getting one ☝️😊

Haha I can not confirm or deny my whereabouts

It was Top Secret until this comment! Who told you??? Lol

Yes 100%

@@dcdvs1583 so you telling me I could remove rivets from a Glock magazine with this tool❓I’m off to order one now

My eyes are sensitive to light and I have no tear ducts that produce tears. The lenses are a specific type I have made based off my eyes. My vision is actually perfect other than UV light sensitivity, otherwise I’m squinting or my eyes naturally close without wearing my sunglasses

why the weird question?
