use a drill for rivets?

yes you need to drill holes first but match the drill bit to the size rivet you want to use

Yes there are different sizes that comes with the gun but there are not too many and you'd probably need to buy more, what you can do is take a rivet you're going to use and buy that size drill at the same time. Otherwise you may drill too small a hole and the rivet doesn't fit or too big a hole and the rivet falls through.

Yes. Use the drill bit just slightly larger than the rivet you intend to use, otherwise the head won't "grab" the metal and mushroom properly.

Yes, you must first drill a hole to put the rivet through before fastening items together. Hope this answers your question.

You can use a regular drill. Just make sure it is tight around shank. For best results use dremel. Anything is possible

You will need a few tools. A rivet gun is the biggest thing you will need that might not be in your tool box.

use pressure very carefully simultaneously turning micro drill. May not drill due to material hardness.Dremel tool will easily do this.

No. You cant use drill bits. Just the drivers that come with it or similar drivers.

I have never tried that with this drill, but from past experience, you need a hammer drill, or a box full of masonry bits because they will keep breaking.

yes. you need impact type drills which fit into a hexagonal chuck. They are very common.

I just use a cordless drill. It works great removing military crimp primer pockets. Worth every penny.

You would have to punch holes in the leather to accommodate the rivets, using a belt hole punch would work, also a cobbler could probably do it for you.

Sure. You could use them in a hand held drill, but I'm not sure you will be happy with the result. A drill press allows a clean edge to be cut and hand held will probably not get the same result without a jig to stabilize the machine (which could be made).

I could not force the rivets through the cardboard on their own, but I was using 2-3 layers of cardboard. Instead, I used a large nail or even just a screwdriver.

not certain what dremel tool you're referring to but my answer would be no. You'll need at least a 3/8" check and a drill that develops a reasonable amount of torque. You're not looking for high speed. You need low speed and high torque.

Staples or better yet rivets with washers will do the job I believe. Good luck

Not sure if it will be long enough for what you are trying to do, but I would consider a drill press of sorts...

The Drill Size is (American Standard) 5/32" or Metric Drill #21. Thread Depth Minimum is about the same as the Drill Size (ie. Nut Thickness). The Rivets are Designed for Maximum Holding Strength for Thin Sheet Metal to Attach Non Structural Parts to a Metal or Other Thin Surface. Read and Follow the Tool Set Up Instructions for the Size Threaded Rivet You Plan to Use.

Yes, you do get a couple of different sizes to try out. You can buy rivets in many sizes, depends on the project you have.

My guess is - yes. I have occasionally drilled holes and screws into 2x4's and plywood but I use my two drills mostly for mechanical work and furniture assembly. The good news is these 12 volt tools are lighter weight but 18 volt tools would probably last longer if you were working for several hours on heavy construction. Having 2 drills, one for drilling and one for setting screws is a time saver.
