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.

Hi Ron and list,
Sorry, no pictures, but I'll try again: I think you could do what my tool
does by grinding the nose piece of your riveter at an angle and then dimple
the new beveled nose . You can then angle the riveter into a corner while
keeping the new beveled nose square with the rivet. You'll bend the rivet
stem in the process but you'll get a good set on the rivet. My little
attachment works the same way but doesn't alter the nose piece of the riveter.
Better?

Much better. I couldn't see how that would work without bending the stem.
