Anybody willing to sell or loan the homemade tool I see on YouTube that clamps the rivets that go through the welting into the jeep grill?
Thanks for any help,

Re: Grill welting rivet tool
Hi Robin,
You could borrow mine but I'm in UK.
I made mine out a set of old mole grips (UK term) and drilling two holes in a piece of steel then slitting it in half with a disc cutter and welding one of the resulting portions to one of the jaws. If you have a bench drill, angle grinder/disc cutter and access to a welder, you should be sorted in about 1/2 hr.
I hope that helps

Thank you for the offer and information. I just don't have access to the welding equip. Hoping someone in the U.S. could offer the use of the tool.
