One had four riveter tools and the other a CD.Ī small instruction card comes with the tools which gives you some ideas on how to use the tools. When it finally came, I opened the package and found two zip lock bags inside. When John Noack offered me the opportunity to do a review on the Rosie the Riveter tools, I became like a little kid watching the mail box every day. Since that time, I have seen various articles about the Rosie tools and started to get curious again, especially since I have gotten back into building a few aircraft again. Rosie the Riveter tools were then explained to me, but when I found out you had to have them specially made from the Czech Republic, I decided that maybe I didn't need one after all. I said 'Uh huh' and asked what they really used. I immediately asked what they used, and the reply was 'Rosie the Riveter'. A couple of years ago, two of the finest modelers I know, Rich Van Zandt and Roger Rasor of IPMS/Memphis had some models at our annual contest that had unbelievably crisp rivet patterns where either none had existed before, or the unsatisfactory ones had been replaced.
