Rivet Squeezer Tool
Part of any job is buying the tools to do the task at hand. The best part is you get to keep the tools for the next project. The bottom skin of the float is joined to the side skin with soft squeezed solid rivets AD-3-3 or AD3-5 where skin doublers are present. This is a Tatco (made in USA) rivet sqeezer sold by Aircraft Spruce #12-00300. It has changable jaws so you can reach in past the splash guard on the front of the floats. The squeezer needs a set of dies to work #12-00882. The 1-1/4X4" jaw is #12-00322. This is a quality piece of tooling. They make air powered squeezers at 7X the price of this hand powered unit. Your preference its your choice.
