still, they don't make them anymore.
i think they were made by a friend of the family, who for reasons unbeknown to me (can't remember, sorry) stopped making them.
you can buy mine though, seeing as i've bent the M6 thread. seriously though, the bolt cropper type shape ones are supposed to be good and seem
to pull the rivnut up straight and true.

He's retired.
Their machinist, that is. I think it was an old guy who did it in his machine shop at home. My local bolt supplier has the M8 pincer type at £40.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
