Not the better of others I've used UPDATED: Up there with the rest of them now
Nice kit, though all I needed was the tool. The tool itself does draw the rivet up tight, but it then breaks the rivet shaft far up inside the tool, leaving most of the shaft still sticking out of the rivet. It does that at least three of every five times I use it. This makes my Dremel an automatic part of the process. Pop-rivet first, then Dremel the rivet shaft off and flush. Pain in the butt. I would not buy this one again and do not recommend it. UPDATE: Libraton Tools saw my review and, unsolicited, messaged me and offered a full refund. I told them I appreciated the offer, but I'd prefer a replacement tool -- not a whole new kit, just the tool. They quickly responded asking for my address and I received a new kit. I am impressed that they bothered in the first place and more so that they offered a refund no strings attached. And at no time have they asked that I change my review. Got to appreciate a business ethic like that. And the replacement? I installed 10 rivets in a test piece. On the first one the tool snapped the rivet shaft properly but retained the snapped rivet shaft -- I pushed it out with a new rivet. After that if performed perfectly. From the same bag of rivets, I tried the "old" tool again and sure enough, it left the shaft about 3/4 the way up and would require the Dremel treatment. The tool is functional and the company ethic superb. Read more
