Dear Listers,
After nearly 23 years of building metal airplanes on and off, I finally came across a really nice bucking bar. The part number details are below and I've attached a picture of it with the optional 6.5" Dolly Shank attached (recommended).
The handle has a vibration absorbing mechanism inside and it makes riveting almost a pleasure. It really works good. I was truly amazed at how much more comfortable it is riveting using the tool.
If you've got even a modest amount of riveting left to do on your project, surf over to the US Tool web site and order up one. You won't be sorry!
I don't get any kick back (pun intended) from US Tool; I'm just a very stratified customer.
