My big ass bucking bar
This monster bucking bar is great for this type of riveting. The skin is thin and the hinge tends to bend too easily. If I use a lighter bucking bar, the skin and the hinge will start bending out of shape and look like crap. So, in this case, I am concentrating on the rivet, caught between the rivet gun and the bucking bar, applying equal pressure on each end of the rivet, using my arms. This way the skin and the hinge is sandwiched between the ends of the rivet, making the rivet take the punishment and not the material. How do I know this??? Don't ask...
