This guide is designed to help you set rivets straight when using a Chinese rivet setter kit.
There are other ways to make the process easier, such as adding an extra leather washer or trimming the rivet leg if it’s too long. However, with this guide you can achieve almost perfectly straight rivets even without using those methods.
- The model should be printed from PLA with tree supports.
- Tolerances are very tight.
- The rim should be glued to the anvil insert.
- You must manually draw seams inside the holes — there are special grooves for that.
- If necessary, use a drill to widen the holes.
- It may also work with some snap setters, since the anvil is the same. I provide two diameters here with a tube insert, but you’ll need to cut the anvil guide in slicer with a negative cylinder for specific snap\rivet diameters, or simply not use it.
