I'm looking for something specifically to cut brass rivets (copper rivets are much easier). I'm basically using a fence cutting tool at the moment but the way it's setup is preventing me from cutting the rivet as short as it needs to be. It has big bolts from the compound action so I have to cut at an angle and it leaves too much stem left to peen down properly.
And.... if anyone knows of a more affordable "single" purpose rivet setter (without the domer included) please let me know. As of right now the only single setters I can find are about $75 per size. I really enjoy the aesthetic of brass rivets over copper and it bums me out I haven't been able to easily use them
Any helpful insights would truly be appreciated!
