I let someone borrow mine once, then they borrowed to someone, and then they let someone else borrow it and now it's gone! Be carefull who you lend your tools to!

Re: Anybody have a chain rivet tool?

I just had a local Honda dealer finish mine up for me. I just walked in this past Saturday and they charged me $17. I couldn't find the tool anywhere for less than $85 and I wanted it done right then and there so I paid the price for the peice of mind.
