Sure looks like some great prices and a huge variety of shapes. Are all of the different shapes all tungsten?

Got mine off of eBay
1" x 1" x 2" with 10 deg bevel on one end. Rarely use beveled end and would rather not have it so that it is easier to feel when I am perpendicular to inside of wing skins. Works well with 3/32" or 1/8" rivets. Have not dinged a skin or my foot yet, but would imagine it could do alot of damage for its size. Worth every 10,000 pennies I paid for it. Bucked over 10,000 rivets with it so far. Pretty good ROI.

Once you've used tungsten, nothing else measures up!

Unfortunately my wallet has more say so over my choice of merchants than does my merchants choice of music. Thanks for all the responses guys. Bugsy, check your PM's.
