Ordered this set as a hand squeezer riveting/dimpling set.
Only one problem: I can't get the "ram" die (the one that moves) to come anywhere near the stationary die. closest I can get them is about 1/2" from one another. I've played with the adjustment screw/nut, taken the unit apart and put it back together several times and I'm just not seeing any further adjustment.
I can't believe they would ship a rivet squeezer with yokes and dies that would only rivet 3/4" long rivets and would be incapable of dimpling![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Surely, I'm missing something.
