Re: Rivet tools--what's out there today?
As royster44 mentioned, use the manual riveter at competitions, meaning you can ditch the compressor completely.
We have a Harbor Freight pneumatic riveter, but we have hardly used it so I cannot vouch for its durability. It pulls 1/4" aluminum rivets effortlessly.
In addition to the smaller hand riveters, we also have a " big daddy" hand riveter. In my estimation one could have assembled the George Washington bridge with it, as it appears to be built to last forever. Not inexpensive though.
