Pretty much everything I'm finding is an expensive pneumatic tool.
Rivets are cleanly removed without damage to the rivet hole or aircraft skin. Which means I guess I need an entirely different tool now Does anyone have any suggestions on an affordable tool I could buy for this. RIVET REMOVAL TOOL - Our rivet removal tool comes complete with four drill bits and guides for removing 3/32, 1/8, 5/32 and 3/16 universal head (AN470) solid rivets. But, looks like my tool won't accommodate one that large. Then I come to the realization (correct me if I'm wrong) that the nosepiece size does not represent the rivet shank size but instead the actual rivet diameter - DOH! The rivets I have measure out to 1/4" diameter, so I guess I need a 1/4" rivet nosepiece not 3/16. I thought maybe the kit was missing some parts so I order a 3/16" nosepiece from Toro. Upon getting it home it also wouldn't accommodate my rivets. After some research I picked up a USA made Marson HP-2 from a local pawn shop rather than spend more for a new foreign version off Amazon. The Problem: I ordered the OEM rivets for re-installation but my pop-rivet tool wouldn't fit the rivets which are fairly large. The Project: I had to fix the fuel door on my Toyota Tacoma which involved removing the door which is riveted on rather than bolted on. Our rivet removal tool comes complete with four drill bits and guides for removing 3/32', 1/8', 5/32' and 3/16' universal head (AN470) solid rivets. I've used pop rivets on occasion for almost 20yrs now but am realizing I don't know a darn thing about them and before I waste anymore time or money I wanted to see about getting some help from y'all.
