This is my first post, so please excuse me if I err. Last June, I purchased
a pneumatic rivet squeezer from Avery tools. It worked great until lately,
when it petulantly refused to squeeze 1/8 inch rivets. I called Avery Tools
in Fort Worth and Bob Avery called me back. He told me to send him the
squeezer and he would check it out. I sent it to Avery with a letter. In
the last line of the letter, I joked that Bob should lecture the squeezer
and tell him to straighten up and fly right. On Monday, I received the
following e-mail:
Dear Stephen:
I disassembled your squeezer and left him locked up overnight with all the
loose parts in my squeezer parts bin. I threatened him with life without
parole in the parts bin should he not straighten up & fly right. (It's quite
easy to get that here in Texas -- it's called "cowboy justice" and all you
need to get a conviction is to wear cowboy boots & a cowboy hat to court and
present as exhibit "A" a 6 pack of longnecks !!).
The next day I cleaned up all the parts, polished a few key internal parts,
re-greased all the bearings, and reassembled. Gave him a serious talking
to and reminded him what fate awaits him should he return to Texas. I've
had him squeeze a couple dozen 1/8" rivets and he seems to be doing just
fine now. I've included a book for the purpose of reading him his rights,
should he stray and start acting up again. He is on the way back to you
today.
Regards;
Bob Avery
P.S. No charge -- all the other parts in the bin took up a collection to
pay his fine -- seems they don't want him around since he is such a bad
boy!!
Besides being a great humorist, Bob Avery is a stand up guy. I must have
been out of warranty on the squeezer, but Bob came to the rescue at no
charge.
For all of you out there building (or contemplating building) a RV you
really should get a pneumatic squeezer. It is indispensable. And if you
are wondering where to purchase such an implement, Avery tools would be the
obvious answer. A guy with this much devotion (and humor) just has to be
rewarded.

Steve and all you other rivet squeezers/bangers
Had a problem with my 90 degree drill that I bought from Avery. Contacted
Bob...he said send it and I will check it out. He did! Sent it back ASAP.
Has worked great since.
Avery is the best. Bye the way the 90 degree drill is off probabtion, but I
understand is in a witness protection program because of rating out a bad
squeezer bought from rival gang .
Frank @ SGU and SLC... RV7A 75% complete 150% to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
