Ever tried to remove a rivet? It is freaking maddening. I would usually just end up choosing the nuclear option and trash what ever it was I was working on to get the little bastard out.<\/p>\n

One of the many ToDo items on my recent mast project was to remove and replace a crapload of rivets on my mast and was not really looking forward it. Until I found an awesome little tool that makes it freaking simple as hell. <\/p>\n

This is that tool:
\n<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s called a Rivet Removal Tool<\/a>\"\" which is a pretty ingenious name when you think about it. It’s a tool, that removes rivets. Seriously, how do they come up with this stuff?<\/p>\n

I guess it is kind of expensive (approx. $60), but I’m a sucker for single use tools. Tools that are designed to do one job and do it AWESOME!<\/p>\n

Once I started using the thing, I ended up replacing more rivets than originally planned. It basically works like a drill bit, but has an extra part that grabs the rivet head and keeps it from spinning. And that is the part that drives you fuggin crazy if you don’t have this tool.<\/p>\n

Now I can save my nukes for other things that I swore I would NEVER take off again and used 5200 on.<\/p>\n
