Hi Phill& list,

I don't recall where I picked up the idea for riveting in tight spots, but
I made a small attachment for my rivet tool that works slick for tight corners.

It's just a cylindrical piece of metal 3/8 inch in diameter about 3/8 of an
inch long with one end beveled at 30 degrees. Dimple the square cut end
like the nose piece of your riveter and drill a hole for rivet stems
through the center of it. Slip the thing over the rivet stem before you
pull it and you will be able to position your puller at an angle and still
get a straight pull on the rivet.

Have fun!!

I don't quite understand what you mean. Got any pictures?
