Plinker7.62s Rivet Press: The ultimate press for AK Rivets

[Quarterbore]

Plinker7.62s Rivet Press

This is one of those tools that look so handy that you just need to buy one and I kept putting it off as I built up the rest of my shop tools. Well, I finally decided that I needed to add one of these to my collection as well!

Following are some pics from Plinker762 himself... I have received my own Jig and it has a few new features that are different then the jig shown below. I have not had the chance to get the jig into good light to take more pics and I have been busy with other projects so I have not gt to form rivets with this yet but I hope to do something about that soon!

If you are interested in buying one of these jigs, please contact Plinker7.62 (his contact info is in the following post copied from the old board).
