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.

I'll stick with my tungsten bucking bar, it's by far the best I've ever used.... and it's 1/2 the price of the recoil ones!!

Thanks for the pirep. I also like my 1" x 1" x 2" tungsten for 90% of the ones i did not use my squeezer on. I would buy an alligator squeezer if building another. That one seems a little on the large size for me.
