Job made easy with adapted eyelet riveting tool, no need for extra pair of hands to hold shoe whilst riveting with punches
I replaced the tip on the tool with a cut and ground down riveting punch , it worked a treat

If quitters never win, and winners never cheat, then who is the fool who said "Quit while you're ahead"
That's a very neat tool. It would have been useful the only time I ever attempted to reline brake shoes myself. At the age of 18 on a Messerschmitt KR200 and I b***ered up the linings completely and had to go off and get them done professionally.
Takes me back as well to when I first started (50 years in the trade this year) we had a tool with different size mandrels that fitted in vice and just used small ball peen hammer to rivet over . We used to skim coms on dynamos , rebrush , and rebush them as well!!!
