Max, the steel cup you're thinking about sounds very much like the tools they sell for seating tap rivets. The one I have is maybe two and a half inches long. It might be a half inch or so in diameter. It's nothing but a bar, with a cup or bowl hollowed out on one end. You can get these at places who sell to leather crafters for a couple of bucks. -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Max Robinson Sent: Sunday, January 21, 2007 9:54 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] removeing rivits I had some help from my dad when I was about 13 years old and trying to remove tube sockets from an old radio that were riveted in. He got me a small steel cup, a punch and a hammer. The rivets were the type that one
side is domed and the other side has an indentation. The procedure was to put the rivet over the steel cup, with the indented side up, place the punch in the indentation and whack it with the hammer. It worked very well. I sometimes wish I still had that steel cup. Punches and hammers I can get. I suppose a hole drilled in a piece of steel would work as well. Regards. Max. K 4 O D S.
