Working with 60+ year old safety glasses we would find it valuable to have rivets? bushings? to repair side-shield goggles, AO, Baush, Willson, Welsh, etc.
Does anyone know where we could purchase?
Thank you

Hilco has them.
And you'll need a staking kit.
We have the old repair kits and tools from a couple different manufacturers. Including what looks like a rivet tool. Not sure what a staking kit is.
There is a staking set, it makes removing and replacing rivets and even frozen screws a bit easier.

Better than pliers!
You too? And I thought I was the only one.Quote:

I want to purchase a staking tool to install/press rivets into some Glasses projects that I work on, I really liked the Hilco one but having difficulty contacting them, I want to purchase this item as an individual not as a company and so far could not get an answer from them, I checked websites like Amazon and Ebay but could not find a staking tool similar to the Hilco one there as well, Does anyone know where I can purchase one?? preferably a website where I can ship it to my address. Please help, I never thought this would be a taunting process like this....
P.S: HOPE TO FIRE UP THIS 3 YEAR OLD DISCUSSION
You might be able to find someone selling a few used ones.
Contact a fellow member, Jeep-Power, he may have a few used ones to sell.

I suggest starting a new thread in the general forum specifically asking for a staking set.
You might get better responses!
