Saw this tool on a FB Vintage Tool I.D. Group, was unidentified by the poster.
So looked up the tool in a Stevens Speed Up Catalog. Rather useful to have when one-man replacing rivets, makes a real good bucking bar.
Would have liked that tool for last job on a crossmember, resorted to using nuts and bolts as jack screws to buck the rivets.

That’s a desirable Stevens tool to have. This probably doesn’t show up very often. Unless you know what you’re looking for this is a tool that’s probably been looked over in junk boxes at swap meets.

Thought so too, the OP on that tool group found it at a garage sale, in Melbourne Australia of all places!

So, did anyone here get it? Sold on Ebay last night, $100 AU, about $70 US.

The link above works. I just typed in
stevens "model T" as well as search title and description and completed and sold listings. Also brought up 2 of the spindle bushing refacers.

Pep, Thanks for the link. It popped right up with the link. I have been having issues with the e-bay search feature. I have several different "Stevens" searches saved. One is "Stevens New York" so it should have sent me a e-mail when it was listed. I have missed several things lately. I guess it time to have a "chat" with e-bay customer service.
(again). The rivet tool was one of the few Stevens tools I do not have. I may not have won the auction but the seller would have been way happier if I had been bidding and did not get it. It sure would not have sold as cheaply as it did ... Oh well, we can't win them all.... Thanks again ...
