Rivet Setter.

Recommended Posts

What are you guys using to set normal double cap or jiffy rivets? I just got a press n snap and it does a much better job for snaps than a hammer and hand tool, I'd imagine a press of some sort would work much better rivets too. I'm really starting to regret selling the heritage foot press I had.

I don't want to spend a fortune as I don't set a whole lot, I was looking at two weavers setters, one is a heritage the other is a Rex, they look similar but I think they are only for tubular rivets. Both are around 50 bucks.

The little wonder looks nice but by the time I'd get the dies its 300 plus I'd probably want other dies which puts it even higher. That's certainly not a huge expense but I don't set enough to really justify that I don't think. I normally set one at a time on purse straps and things like that and occasionally for holster clips.
