Thank you - been waiting for that one. Really explains it well. One question about the depth of hole in the tool; in the way i imagine it, it should have a depth, that equals the hight of the rivet (to be able to apply pressure onto it directly, and thereby tightening it) - But it seems that that is not the case (it can be deeper, if i heard you correctly?). But what causes the tightening then? Is it the pressure applied to the handle, or? Thanks again, really helpfull, and much appreciated. :)
You're welcome, sorry it took so long to make the video. I kept losing my note to do this one! And yes, the depth of the hole tool is irrelevant. What you're actually using that tool for is to firm up the body to the handle. You're trying to avoid actually touching the rivet during this process, and just let any extra rivet material in the handle and body holes spread out with the hammering and the spread of pressure on the handle to the body. It's sort of counter intuitive, but to tighten rivets, you're really not hammering on the rivets themselves.
Wow, counterintuitive, but very cool. Great tip. By the way, where do you source those cast brass handles from? I’d like to make a few pots but can’t find handles in less than a gross. I know different handles can be made from stainless steel sheet, but I like the brass ones.
Thank you. I found that riveting. Gonna try it now. 😊
lolol, I'm glad it was so riveting ;) (and helpful! yay!)

Hello beautiful one…
happy for todays visit…

I don't source cast brass handles. They came with the original pot. Sorry. I don't know where you could get them as I have never looked.
@@housecopper oh, ok, since you have a company that sells copper pots, I assumed you had a place to buy them from. I’ll keep looking.
Interesting, we buck rivets slightly different on Aircraft. I have a couple questions, I will send via your contact page. Thanks, love your skills.
Great, I'll watch for your questions.
Good to know!😘
Glad it was helpful! xoxxo
I have a Mauviel saucepan with rivets that need tightening. In fact, I have two Mauviel pieces that I need to send to you.
There is a contact page on my website. Cheers!
