removing rivets

[smoketrail 0]

Does any one know how to remove rivets at home?

How difficult is it to drill in new holes for holders?

Removing Rivets can be difficult, it is better to have them removed a rivet remover. As for drilling new holes that is fairly easy to do.

Rivet guns don't work with these rivets. Just go to a pro shop and get it done.

Use a cutoff tool to remove the rivets but be careful and watch the rivet temperature while doing this. You can call some local hockey shops and order the Graf RMS screws. They're expensive but make it easy to change your blades.

With the RMS screws you will need to open up the holes on your boots. Be extremely careful and test the drill size versus the rms screw size on some different material before drilling into your boot.

Hope this helps.

removing rivets is not so hard, you just need a pair of plyers, so something that can catch the rivet so you can pull it out... as for drilling holes i would definately go to a pro shop to get that done

Would you recommend doing them one at a time?
