1618 had that riveter as well. About $100 as I remember, but probably the coolest item in their arsenal. If the IFI kitbot had persisted, we'd have bought one by now for 2815. But with the C-Base, we just haven't had the need for the 1/4" rivets that give it the reputation it has.
Pending the green light from the financiers, I think we'll be acquiring this Harbor Freight one for next season. At $40, it only costs us two hand riveters (and we'll blow through those anyway).
