Cherry Lock

Hi all

Last year I got hold of an Ex Military (UK) Cherry Lock Aircraft
Riveting kit. It has 2 X Hydraulic & 2 X manual rivet systems.

For each set up it has six types of pulling heads plus all the setting
tools, pressure gauges, manuals...overhaul kits....


I bought with a view to using it on my old Landrover, but it is way
too good for this, think it needs a better home.

Question: Is this sort of set up good for your average home builder?

Or do the military aircraft use a different type of rivet?


Your help would be appreciated.
