[SEL] Rivets

[Ron Frost, Kersey, PA]

Ed,
There are anvils available that form the round head. There also is backup anvils to keep the rivit head shape on the other side.

I was replacing the bearing in an idler pulley today and when I went to rivet it back together I was stumped. How does one form the nice rounded head on the rivets? I have the rivets that fit the hole but I have never had a special tool to form the heads. The rivets I have are hollow.
