Nice video, Only input I would like to make is that you can also do the same thing as well by drilling the rivet head off first with a drill bit the same diameter drill bit as the rivet then knock it off just like in your video. This means if you go to deep drilling the head off you don't do any structural damage. I then like to drill the undersized hole after the head is gone. I know engineers that do it both ways I guess it comes down to what you feel most comfortable using.
