What do you mean tick - tick - tick...

You want to do a NICE rivet set in a couple seconds?

Get a rivet header for your air hammer. I made one out of a POS chisel
that wouldn't hold up. Cut the shank square, then used a ball end cutter
in a Dremel to grind a nice cup in the end. Heated it red hot and oil
quenched. Works GREAT. Made a backer for it out of a chunk of rail iron.

I spaced a pair of holes so I can do both rivets in about 15 seconds.
