I wanted a simple way to get at those four rivet holes on the leading edge of the emp.
While wandering around my shop I found a bar of Aluminum, drilled a hole in the end of it and wala a dimple die holder.
It works very well.

Nice rig! Good tip!
I did a similar thing with a small slab of steel bar, but I drilled and countersunk the bar itself.

Check out the free upgrade on a DRDT-2 Dimpler at
www.planetools.com as this unit does consistent and professional quality dimples.

Hey CJ,
A little late for you. You get a free upgrade to the DRDT-2 when you buy their RV tool kit.

too late for me to, but is that an upgrade from a standard c-frame? that's a hell of a deal!
