Ok Dany Please Please dont think I am picking But I see from one of your shots the little concave rivets I have trouble with and am just using them as an example to show the probs I have. in your picture http://www.pbase.com/image/3987364&exif=Y there you have a lot of nice looking rivets and if you look close you can see that several also have shrunk in a spot giving a concave look rather than the nice rounded head.

Again my question is what ratio does everyone mix their glue and water with to get rid of this problem?

Bud I will have to look them up and give them a try sounds interesting.

PS I use one of them little fishing reel oilers for my rivet tool. after cleaning it out good they work great!! they dont have the sharp tip like the syringe to cut off and all you have to do is gently squeeze the tube. I do eventually get all my rivets to look nice but i hate having to redo half my rivets then redo half of them etc until they all are done. I am going to experiment with different types of glues to see if i can find an alternative. I was wondering if anyone has tried hide glue or any of the other carpenter glues?
