Need instructions on building a rivet squeezer? No lack of tools for any build be it tool or wpn but instructions to set the noodle off on its wild ride , well there are days and there are days.

Question on how to make one. I have my own ideas, but before something hits the scape pile I'd like some input. Every penny saved means more tools and Wpns.

There are tons of pictures showing how to do it. Mine was made from an 18 pairof bolt cutters from Harbor Freight. I just took the bots lose so the jaws swung free and used my grinder to do it stopping to cool them off in water and to check progress. The I too a scrap piece of steel and made a pad with a dent for the rivet which I welded to the other jaw. It was easy and worked well. Some like the 24 inch cutter better and they might be right. Have fun and buy on sale. CHEAP! CHEAP!
