Had a few custom chassis' made for a vintage tube amplifier, and I am having the damndest time finding a suitable gun or punch. Here is what the manufacturer said to me: "Please search for “Semi-tubular Rivet Crimping Mold Flanging Punch” on eBay or AliExpress. Since the rivet diameter is 3.4mm, select Diameter 3.0, and since the rivet length is 3.5mm, select the 3.5mm product. However, because the rivet head is round, you must also take into account the area where the head touches the surface during the process. Please attach the photos I send. This riveting work requires extreme caution. Because it is a difficult task, we manufacture and supply the rivets and screws."

Always curious as to what kind of hair I have. Dried it out pretty bad a few weeks ago by applying an egg mask for a few hours, and thus have been leaving it alone since. Never do that again.
