Hi Kaz! I love the idea you did with your Parallel Pliers for the rivet. Any chance of doing a video on how you modified the pliers? Thanks!!

Hi,
Thank you for asking.
I found some typos in my description and corrected them.
I dug a semi-sphere dimple on each side of the plier's heads.
I used a small round bur.

Thanks for sharing your process videos - they are well made, to the point and shows your fine craftsmanship. I am learning this technique and your videos are one of the best I have seen so far. I also like your setting style, design, and mechanics. The question and answers helped fill the gaps. Thanks
