[QUOTE="jawjatek, post: 481212, member: 24152"] Well, today I used a heavy axe head with a flat back I had around as a bucking block, and used a brass punch and hammer on the loose rivet. Tightened it right up. Then I put the 5200 on the outside, and also on the other 2 weepy rivets I found. I'll see how they do Monday when I go fishing. I still want to order the hammer bit, so I'll just get it and try it out. I'll also order their bucking tool. It's only about $40 for the tools and some rivets to practice with. I'd love to be able to install/re-buck solid rivets properly on tin boats. [/QUOTE]
