Rivet-R

RIVET-R rivet tool.

This is an attachment for a standard craft/hobby knife. Use this tool to scribe rivets on plastic, resin and even soft metals. This tool makes round imprints rather than the square imprints made by other tools.

The tool comes with 4 separate wheels with the following pitch (distance between rivets):
- 0.75mm (~0.03in)
- 1.00mm (~0.04in)
- 1.25mm (~0.05in)
- 1.50mm (~0.06in)

Extra wheels with the following pitch:  0.65mm (~0.025in) and 0.55mm (~0.02in) are available here:

The set comes with four wheels and one holder. If you do not wish to change the wheels and have separate/permanent wheel&holder assemblies for each type of wheel, holders are also available on their own (without the wheels) here:

The tool is made entirely from stainless steel.

The set does not include the handle. If you do not have the handle in your spare box, you can get one very affordably from your local art and hobby store or even Ebay. Such handles manufactured by X-Acto, Excel, Jakar (as well as generic no-name brands) are available on Ebay for as little as 1 euro, sometimes as part of a box-set.
