Rivetting Clamp

rivetting clamp

Homemade cam action rivetting clamp, acquired by Warren Nau from another boatbuilder from South Amboy, NJ. Clamp used for rivetting lapstrake power sea skiffs. Clamp made from a steel rod shaped into a U shape, 2 1/4 inches between the legs and 9 1/2 inches deep, with a 'Y' shaped pad that straddles the rivet. Screwed onto pin with spring loaded rod (aluminum?). Overall fair condition. Overall: 12 x 5 x 8 in.
