Review Parkside Rivet Gun
Paddy's DIY - Review - Parkside Rivet Gun
I recently used a DeWalt 18v rivet gun, and i was blown away by how quick it was. I have been using a manual rivet gun since i started working with my family business. It is all i have ever know. I have tried countless manual rivet guns, and i found the best one there is. The Gesipa Flipper. It is an absolutely fantastic rivet tool. The quickest and best rivet gun i have ever used. It is made by a company called Gesipa. It is extremely quick compared to other manual rivet tools, as it has a ratchet action. The only down side for me is to do with the line of work i am in. I would have to replace hardware on aluminum windows, which are all riveted. I would have to hold the window sash with one hand and operate the rivet gun with the other. It can be a real pain if I'm honest.
In the past i have looked into cordless rivet guns (particularly the Gesipa ones) but they were extremely expensive. I have also tried the rivet attachments that clamp onto a cordless drill. They were a waste of time and money. I had given up on searching for a replacement for my Gesipa Flipper, until i tried that DeWalt rivet gun. But the price tag was still too expensive for me. The same for the Milwaukee rivet gun. Either the DeWalt or Milwaukee would be totally fine for someone who who is using it all the time. But for me, I wouldn't be using it that regularly to justify spending that kind of money on it.
Then i happened to see the Parkside Rivet Gun show up in the specials in Lidl. I saw the price tag, and i decided that i was going to give it a try. Even if it was half as good as the DeWalt Rivet Gun, it would save me a huge amount of time and effort.
So check out my review to see what i thought of it. Would it knock my beloved Gesipa Flipper off it's throne???

    This problem will continue everywhere until the greedy manufacturers stop making them to fail, forcing you to buy new. The cause is obvious. The failures are on the hot sunny sides of the house. The units are made in a comfortable working temperature factory. When in the hot sun, the air expansion is massive, and will eventually blow out a weak spot in the glue. Then at night, there is a vacuum created and cold damp air is sucked in. After many repeats, the moisture condenses on the glass. There are two ways they can prevent this. One, is to glue the unit together in a hot chamber, so that later on, the unit is mostly under slight vacuum, pulling the glue together, rather than forcing it apart. The hot sun cannot create such a high pressure anymore. The other way is to put a tiny one-way check valve in the spacer, so that the first time the sun raises the temp and pressure, the valve releases the pressure, and from then on, most of the time there will be a slight vacuum, as described above.

    Thanks, really helpful. Got the handle off our widow then tried pulling rubber strip out as shown. Was struggling to get any purchase on rubber strip without damaging window frame. I then put screwdriver in hole where the barrel on the latch mechanism goes and turned. After a few goes the window opened! We now have fresh air coming in our bathroom in the current hot spell - it’s been like an oven in there recently!
