I will give them a call. Bert -----Original Message----- From: Jim Oke [mailto:wjoke@shaw.ca] Subject: Re: RVCanada-List: RV Tools --> RVCanada-List message posted by: Jim Oke Further to my earlier message on this subject, I checked the Goulet web site and they have a 19 page downloadable tool catalog. Includes, rivet guns, bucking bars, bucking bar sets, specialized drills and lots more. Worth a look. http://www.gouletaircraft.com/ (Bottom centre of the page).
