I was wondering if any of you aircraft buffs out there would know anything about a Tucker Pop Rivetting removal tool that can be used when the little suckers spin on removal. I have some numbers but will post them if somebody has any info about the said tool. Heres waiting for info.

Me neither…..always hated the little bu99ers anyway, a Cherry or Avdel is always a better bet.
Anyway, another way to get them out, if you can’t reach the other side, is to gently grind the head away with an Abradisc until the head is paper thin, then you can knock it out without damaging the skin underneath. Won’t work on a countersunk head, of course.
Good luck!

Never heard of it!! A pair of pliers to hold the tail always does the trick when you can get to the back of them.
