Easy-to-Do Rivets & Setter Kit - 60 Assorted Rapid Rivets - Two Piece Rivet Setting Tool - Repair Kit for Leather Belts, Wallets, Bags, and Straps

I was a little worried that I might have trouble striking the bar and not have the rivets slip off the base because I was expecting the pieces to mold to the rivets just a little more. However, I had no trouble whatsoever. I used this to attach name plates onto my dogs' collars as the engraved plates came with rivets but no way to attach them! I like that there is a mix of sizes. I have no experience attaching rivets and I had zero trouble using this tool. Worked perfectly. Don't know how many other projects I'll need it for, but this did the job easily and perfectly.

Used this set to make a door-hanger contraption for my dad. I had never attempted any sort of leather work before and was nervous. The rapid rivets were SO EASY to use and the project came out fantastic. There are different sizes which really fit the bill since I was working with different widths/thicknesses of leather strapping. The end result was so excellent that I've made more. I did consult Rapid Rivets online tutorial which was really helpful.

I used this set to make a series of quality belts, which fit me perfectly, after purchasing the buckles and reusing some leather straps. The rivets are easy to set and the package includes small, medium (which worked for me) and large rivets in both silver and bronze. These are rapid rivets, so only one side (the cap side) is presentable. The anvil and setter they provided did their job. Employ the flat side of the anvil and the concave side of the setter against the rivet head. I used a regular hammer, a few solid wackes giving a good seat, instead of the wood mallet the instructions recommended. Moreover, beforehand, I experimented with the rivet sizes on some scraps I hole-punched to see which worked best. If you are doing belt alteration or repair, these rivets give a professional finish. If you want visual instructions (if the video is still available) checkout Youtube by typing in the key words "Setting a Rivet" and watching MainLineIndustries' video to see how these particular rivets function (though the ones displayed are double caped).

Used these to make leather sheaths for hatchets and axes. Worked perfectly, no problems with connecting the two pieces. They hold very tight, one project had a strap with a snap and I did not aline it properly. When snapped the strap was slightly twisted and the rivet held so tight it would not rotate even a few degrees. I had to drill it out and replace the rivet with the strap at the proper angle. If the post is too long for your project use a Drexel cut off tool and shorted to any length. With this in mind buy the ones with longer posts and they will work for a wide range of material thicknesses ...

I am really happy with this purchase. The set includes a variety of rivet sizes as well as the anvil and the setter. I bought this to repair a harness for my Mini horses. it worked great and saved me buying a new harness. This harness gets a lot of abuse and these rivets have held up well. I have used this kit to repair many other things. They work well for Leather, webbing, nylon, canvas and many other materials.

Like the title says, these are easy-to-do! I need to wear a shop apron much of the time, to keep my clothes from getting mucked up, or torn. When wearing a denim shop apron though, often times I catch the larger lower pockets on something, especially when they have a tool in them, and they are more open, and prone to catch on something while I am moving about. For the price, these Tandy Leather Factory Easy-To-Do Series Rapid Rivets, only adding about .50¢ to each apron, when I add a rivet to each of the topside corners, of the larger lower pockets. I have finally, recently, taken this extra step, in helping to keep my aprons lasting longer. This purchase gives me enough to do this on several aprons. It has made all of the difference in the world, and has them lasting much longer for me. All without having to go to the extra expense of getting them mended, or replaced.

These are great rivets, but they can be hit or miss, quite literally. The set includes a mini anvil and setter (that you smack with a hammer) that work great...as long as you get it perfectly centered over the rivet when you hammer it down. The rivets that I meticulously aligned and *very carefully* hammered look beautiful and professional, on the front and back of the piece. However, the ones that I got lazy with turned out absolutely horrid. They bend to the side and out of line VERY easily, which can result in bent caps and crooked, off center sets. I try and use the shortest post' I can get away with, as it helps with the bending and tilting :) There are three sizes in posts included, and two sizes of caps. All in all, these really are beautiful and hold incredibly well.

I tried and tried to connect two pieces of belt leather with these, and after numerous attempts, never could get the two halves to join properly. Each time the top or bottom would slide sideways and I'd end up with a bent blob of brass that separate easily by hand. The directions say place the bottom half on the flat side of the anvil. This seems counterintuitive. If the concave side is not to be used, why go through the additional expense of machining the concave side? I tried reversing the anvil contrary to the directions but got the same result. I consider myself well above average as a handyman, but I could not master these little rivets.

Son muy prácticos para poner remaches rápidos y fácil de llevar a cualquier parte que no puedas llevar una prensa.

does exactly what it's purpose is for. not very sophisticated, but does it every time.

Did the job, all seems good quality

Buen producto para trabajar en piel solo que el material es poco durable

Over priced. Won't blend into each other as they should. Simply annoying.
