I have a pneumatic one from astro that gets into tighter spots, and you don't have to worry about the "legs" not fitting. Opens a whole new world!

Bought my Nutsert kit in 1975, I'm still using that kit.

Faye, you are a great presenter. Knowledgeable, real down to earth, and easygoing.

[howardhutchinson]

As a mechanical engineer, I must commend you because you've done a better job describing the use and installation of rivet nuts than I would patiently do. 😂👍🏽

That damn thing that screws on to that thing is what it is called. Great video. Bought one of those a few years back to do a job on a boat. Thought one of those things I would buy do this job and never use again. I am a fool. I use it not everyday or week but the usage is way more than I ever dreamed and like you went from the few supplies that come with it to a toolbox full of parts and accessories to use on the many things I never dreamed of until I drilled a whole in something and put threads in it.

These tutorials are so practically and can be used by normal DIY people. Also, you can follow step by step to complete the project that you want to acheive with this tool. Too many Youtubers skip steps and expect that you'll just figure it out. Not Faye. 🥰

Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate. I watched a couple of other videos on rivnut tools to try to figure out what I was doing wrong. Fortunately, I saw the part where you pulled back on the spring. Once I pulled down on the spring loaded part to install the mandrel, the process went perfectly.

I'd loved to have seen the back side of the rivnut after you installed it.

Excellent demostration and added bonus of where to get tool and parts. Great job!

I live in Canada and I’ve never seen metric drill bits. Hardware yes like nuts, bolts, etc but no drill bits. Didn’t even know they were a thing until now. You learn something new everyday.

Faye!! What a doll! My kind of gal. Working with you has to be absolutely awesome.

[davidlustig]

I worked for a large company the transitioned us from a manual to a hydrolic version....my hand thanked me consantly

[hickorystx]

Well done with demo and tutorial!!! I have this tool but haven't used it yet. Very handy to have for DIYer and Pro like you!! 😀

[brianoreilly]

Totally agree matching thickness and proper grip range nut super important. Great content ❤

[alanosborne]

Have you ever thought of adding a drop of thread locker on the collar before inserting the rivnut into the hole? It would be added security preventing the rivnut from spinning in the hole. Just a thought!!

"I love you Faye! Excellent tutorial. I have the same rivnut tool, and yes, it is great. Being very careful, I was able to use it on two cars, adding rivnuts in the plastic bumper for license plates, replacing the sheet metal screws that were used before."

[AXNJXN]

Faye, you knocked this tutorial out of the park. Absolutely VERY well explained, well shot, well commented. KUDOS to how you brought this to the masses. Job well done. Had to Sub!

What a great how-to loaded with lots of real knowledge. Thank you Faye

I used my riv-nut tool for mounting my toolbox in the bed of my truck. Works great! Great video Faye!

Thank You for sharing! I just came across this video while surfing YouTube, I am working on a 67 Mustang that is not going to be a totally correct restoration. This will be perfect to mount the inner fender well splash guards instead of the staples used at the factory.
