Aircraft Rivet Sets Gridfinity Holders

This is a group of Gridfinity holders that I made for sets used with my pneumatic rivet gun.  Most of these sets were purchased as surplus, so I don't have part numbers or links to list to go with them.  They may or may not fit your rivet sets.

Left to right:

1.  A basic flush set with a rubber cushion, which was purchased as surplus.

2.  An extended flush set, 3.5" long.  Also surplus.

3. This fits a pair of sets for dome head rivets.  I started out making them for a standard 3.5" set, but 1x2 squares would not have been long enough, so I made them in 1x3 squares and they will hold about a 4.5" long set.  I don't think they make a set in that length, but anything up to that should fit.

4. Holds a pair of 5.5" long sets.  I am keeping offset (angled) sets in it which must have been a surplus find as I don't remember buying them.

5. Holds a "back riveting" set, which is used for driving the shop head of the rivet directly, with a flat plate against the manufactured flush head.  Not sure where I got it; maybe this one?

6. 3.5" offset flush set.

7. 3/4" diameter brass rivet gun punch.  You probably wouldn't use this for riveting; it is for driving fasteners, etc.  This was a new purchase from the yard store, but they now sell a 1" diameter brass punch under the same part number, so it wouldn't fit anyway.

8. [28DEC25] Added a holder for a pair of rivet gun punches.  These punches are about 3" long.

You might notice I didn't make a tray for the standard 5 piece kit that everybody has...  I opted to include the recesses for that in my rivet gun tray.  If you are looking for a dedicated holder for the 5 piece kit, I recommend checking out @Bnut157's work.

Like my other Gridfinity models, the bases are altered to accept 6x3 magnets as a press fit, with the upper surface of the magnet holes modified to make the slicer bridge across correctly for a clean result.  On the larger holders, I have included sacrificial “mouse ears” in the CAD to give the ends more surface area to help prevent them warping off the bed.  These will need to be removed after printing.

The units pictured were printed out of Overture PLA on my Bear upgraded Mk3S+, using a 0.6mm nozzle, at 0.3mm layer height.
