    Youir rivet set made me chuckle JM because we had a similar set for rivetting those RIVET, tubular, aircraft on the L1A1 bayonet grips. I don't think ANYONE, ever got it right first or even second time, even with the special mandril seat thing........... We used to call tyhem RIVETS, tubular, awful!
