You are right, there are small traces left, but some were created later by my mistake, of course. It would be difficult and it would take a long time to correct it afterwards, so I left it as it is. It didn't turn out bad, it will most likely be used in the future, so it's not a problem. Thank you for your comment and for watching.
Very nice job sir. I was hoping at the beginning of the video when you showed the tool , that you would do some mirror finish polishing. Along with the bluing it turned into a show piece. It never looked that good when it was made in Russia! 👍🇺🇸🎥
Rivets! You need to shorten them; so as to leave roughly 5mm above the widest part of the objects being bound together; countersunk holes require less overhang, thicker rivets less too. It takes some practice to eyeball it, but you're not trying to mushroom the rivet, you're expanding the entire top section. Don't use a peening hammer or any mis-shapen hammerheads, use a flat faced hammer, don't smack it too hard (You'll bend the rivet), and keep tapping the center at slight angles until it's tight. If you want it flat, tap it a few times to sure it up, then file the rivet flat (Best achieved with a countersunk rivet.); or file it partially then tap the remainder flat above the grind line. Honestly a countersink would do wonders for your results though. Edit; later on you do MUCH better with your riveting technique, but the rivets are still too long. They look structurally stable though, alls well that ends well.
Excellent observation. You're right, I'm not an expert with rivets, but a few more axes like this and maybe I'll learn that too:):):). Each subsequent rivet turned out better than the previous one. It didn't turn out the worst, but of course it could have been much better. Thank you for the detailed explanation and advice, I will certainly apply it in the future.
@@fastfixks No problem! I love this channel, and i wanna see every tool you make improve. Honestly, as I said, you did fine, just minor improvements will likely help you a lot. You're braver than most because you're showing the learning process. Sorry if I ever seem harsh in any of my comments, I'm bad at tone.

Wow that is fantastic workmanship, i love the way you restore items but don't over do it and leave small marks, well done. 👍

Rivets!
