All-
Tore my riveter apart and found that the collar that holds the nosepiece rivet grippers against the spring had worked loose so there was no spring tension. The grippers were flopping around with no purpose in life.
I hand tightened the collar and pulled 3 A5s "In the air" so I could watch the action. No problems. At 17 cents apiece, I figured this was all the proof of concept testing I could afford.
I'll wait until I've pulled a few "Real" rivets to find out if everything is OK, then wrench tighten the collar.
Sketch attached.
Good building!
