Since I am getting gung ho about the build hisand thought it might do the rivetting.
Any thoughts?

I think you would be better off with a bolt cutter mad into a squeeze. Directions can be found in the build it your self forums.
Just my opinion from 19 years in the aircraft industry as a structures mechanic.
I have used that tool and you will not be happy with it. They make hand squeezers but they are $150.00 or better, plus rivet sets to go in it. You can always buy extra jaws for your bolt cutters and use them as bolt cutters to?

Thanks for the advice.  Thought it looked enough like the rivet squisher someone either on this forum or another had built.  heading to Harbor freight today for the bolt cutters..  As soon as I can sit down and figure picture posting, I will post progress pics.
