Rosie the Riveter: 0,40mm double wheel. DOUSEK D040

Double wheel riveter of 0,40mm between rivets. Perfect for scribing rivets on plastic models and craft projects, extremely easy to use.

There are seven Single Wheel tools available with the following tooth (rivet) pitches: 1.00, 0.75, 0.65, 0.60, 0.55, 0.50 and 0.40mm. The same dimensions apply for the Double Wheel riveters, with spacing between rows of rivets approximately equal to the rivet pitch of the corresponding size. The two wheel design produces realistic parallel lines of rivets that are offset from one another.

Rosie tools are hand made from the finest components and materials. The wheels are seated using a precise spindle and fixed with minimal axial play to a stiff steel beam. The beam with the wheel is held in a lightweight wooden handle of oval cross-section, which gives you precise and oriented control with a comfortable hand grip.

The tools can be used on plastic, resin and soft metal (aluminium, lead) parts, in conduction with a ruler or freehand without a guide. It is necessary to exert a light, exclusively radial pressure on the wheel into the treated material, to generate rows of "rivets" by pulling or pushing the tool over the surface.
