Ideal for quick repairs

Rivet installation is very easy with this set. I bought this to replace rivets I needed to remove from a shoulder strap with a broken clasp and I put them back on in less than a minute. The variety of rivet sizes is enough to meet most people's needs, but there aren't many of each size, so it's more of a "starter kit". Although the entire kit is fairly compact, the anvil is large and heavy enough to sit on and take a hit, and the setter is long enough that you have enough room to grab it…

Pros
  • Leatherworking accessories
Cons
  • High price

Great rivets but bend easily

These are great rivets but you can literally hit or miss them. The kit comes with a mini anvil and a setter (which you hit with a hammer) that works great if you center it properly on the rivet when you drive it in. The rivets, which I carefully aligned and scored *very carefully*, look nice and professional on the front and back of the part. However, the ones I was too lazy with turned out to be absolutely awful. They flex VERY easily to the side and out of line, which can result in bent caps…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Make your shop/work aprons last longer!

As the name suggests, it's easy to make! I have to wear a shop apron most of the time so my clothes don't get dirty and torn. However, when wearing an apron from a denim store, I often find that the large lower pockets snag on something, especially if they have a tool in them and they are more open and prone to snagging on something while I'm move me For the price of these quick rivets from Tandy Leather Factory's Easy-To-Do series, I only add about 0.50 cents to each apron if I add a rivet to…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Easy to rivet for crafting

I have used this kit to make a range of quality belts that fit me perfectly after buying the buckles and reusing some of the leather belts. The rivets are easy to install and the kit includes small, medium (which worked for me) and large rivets in silver and bronze. These are quick rivets, so only one side (the side of the cap) is showable. The included anvil and setter did the trick. Place the flat side of the anvil and the concave side of the setting tool against the rivet head. I used a…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
